This trough lasted for a month before and after, and I also binge eating for a month. In these gloomy days, there is such a movie that can warm my heart. Seeing those teenagers who have had so many similar experiences with me and are filled with their own confusion, confusion and pain, I seem to find a group of people who have traveled through time and space. Friends, dance tirelessly with them at the lonely and crazy dance, open your arms against the wind to music in the long tunnel, feel the vitality and some kind of infinite power.
Charlie is introverted and withdrawn, and the word "wallflower" seems to be a tailor-made word for him. The memory of being hurt by his aunt at a young age was deeply hidden in his subconscious. He used all his strength to deny such unbearable memories, and also involved himself in his aunt's death, thinking that he killed her aunt. The hatred and love for his aunt were intertwined, lingering in his mind like a lingering curse. The best friend shoots himself, leaving no last words, and Charlie loses his last friend. After leaving the mental hospital, he became a freshman in high school. New classmates were full of hostility, and old friends were deliberately alienated. Every day, a painful countdown started, counting how much time was left until graduation from high school.
Fortunately, he met an English teacher who admired him, Sam and Patrick. The English teacher allowed him to find his own spiritual home in literature, and Sam and Patrick made him feel the warmth of the world again.
He had a crush on Sam, the gentle, kind, empathetic, energetic girl. And Sam, who was sexually assaulted by his father's boss when he was a child, has always been self-deprecating, thinking that he is not worthy of a good life and a good person, so he repeatedly chooses a bastard boyfriend who never takes her seriously. Charlie was very distressed for a time, seeing that the girl who shines in his eyes is worthless and neglected by others, and he can't do anything except confusion and pain.
"Why do some good people always choose the wrong person?" "We only accept the love we think we deserve."
English teacher's answer in one sentence.
Sam felt that he was humble, that he was very insignificant and small. Once anyone knew about her past, they would not pay attention to her again, so he simply despised himself and was willing to fall into the trap of those unreliable boys, and her boyfriend finally abandoned her. Her fact, in turn, reinforces her misconception; Charlie has also had a similar experience. She is introverted and withdrawn, she can only silently care about the person she loves, and she chooses a person who loves her but doesn't love her.
We repeatedly despise ourselves, feel that we are small, and feel that we are not worthy, but we do not know that in the eyes of others, we shine.
Those hurts will pass and fade with time. Those pains that once made us heartbroken, we will laugh when we mention them again next year. Those bleak and even hopeless days will bring profound growth and become the times we will most miss in the future.
We have experienced pain, those are not our fault, those responsibilities should not be borne by us, and we must not repeatedly devalue ourselves because of those. Look carefully at yourself in the mirror, say your name slowly, and tell him that you are not surprised and that you are not alone. You have to hold his face well, and with the most attentive look, tell him—
Those are all over, it's really not easy for you to get to where you are today. We can't decide where we come from, but we can decide where we're going. Your most precious. You deserve a better life, you deserve better people.
