Growth comes from our every day.

Can we grow up one day? On the

weekend , we always hope to be lazy, throw ourselves on the bed today, and watch a total of two good movies, one from Rene Liu and the other called Groundhog Day.

When I have the opportunity to watch the clear theatrical version, I couldn’t help but say to myself after seeing a good movie. Because it is so good, I hope to see a clearer and more atmospheric version, and I don’t mind watching it over and over again. For Groundhog Day, I don't think you'll get bored watching it two or three times.

It's a pity that this film is so old, it's from 1993, when I was 10 years old. Will the theater play such an old movie, although it is countless times better than the boring movie now.

I like this kind of theme very much, time travel, repeat one day, dreams come true. The protagonist of this film is, at first, a bit of a nuisance, self-righteous, aggressive, impatient, and extremely sarcastic. He was terribly tired of being assigned to interview Groundhog Day celebrations. A rather impatient satire at the interview site.
Only in the early morning of the next day he found himself back to yesterday, repeating the people he met and the words he heard yesterday. He felt incredible, then fresh and fun, then restless, then despairing and resentful, then peaceful and warm, then happy and joyful.
He represents the performance of most people in such a situation, suspecting that something is wrong with him, looking for someone to talk to, and no one believes that he began to accept the reality, began to pursue women, continued with money, excitement, all kinds of suicide, despair After that, he became enlightened, he began to read, learn various things, and help the people around him save lives. He even learned the piano, ice sculpture, became gentle and elegant, versatile, and was loved and supported by everyone. The final ending was perfect. He won the return of beauty with his personal charm, and he woke up the next day and finally came to tomorrow.

I was moved by the screenwriter of this film, I bet he is the same person as me and us, but he discovered our problems in detail and gave it to this film.
So, do you expect that one day you will be completely different from what you are now? If we have a lot of time, we will also remodel ourselves well, read more books, travel to some dream places, learn a certain musical instrument or dance step that we have long loved, or do something crazy that can be reckless but want to try a thing or two next thing. Like driving on a train track.
But these thoughts are always named by us as daydreams. As if we were being forced by something, we kept moving forward, as if nothing had been done, but we were very busy and hard. We greeted each other in a hurry on the way. What are you busy with recently? Busy with work, busy with studies, busy with tasks that the boss has pressed down, busy with loneliness or loneliness, busy with stress and then venting, busy with doubting everything or opportunistic, busy complaining or shirk.
What we have no time to care about is ourselves.
We don’t remember listening to ourselves, and we forget what kind of us we want to be.
I? I am such a popular person. Aren't we all the same? I'm a bit harsh or self-righteous, I don't have any skills or hobbies, I like to sit on the sidelines and move forward indifferently. Isn't this what everyone looks like. This is how each of us explains and comforts ourselves.
We can't meet real people, and we doubt our own charm and value, but after we doubt, we always think that it's just the other party's lack of vision. We do not like to reflect and grow, we love to shirk and complain.

There are times when I am disappointed in myself. How did you grow up like this? Why can't you be more perfect, or live more elegantly and splendidly, why can't you learn to be rich, chess, calligraphy and painting, humorous and good taste. And then to comfort myself, there must be no such time. Very busy. so tired. Just live together like that. It is the greatest reason and courage we give ourselves.

Give us this repeat day if you can. Gives us a chance to sleep big and get tired of sleep. Let us love, hate, and vent without the consequences, and let us do things we don't even think we have time for. We read each book one by one, learned musical notes and singing, learned dance and art, learned to write, learned to photograph, learned to laugh unbridled, and learned to love everyone around us, not asking them to remember what was good to them. We don't have to worry about anything, time gives us a long vacation, the surroundings are still and we move.

However, there is no such day. Not in 1993, not even in 2008.

But I thought, we should try to think about what we would actually do one day. Then, let's do a little bit each day now.
Growth is never in one day,
growth comes from our every day.
