Don't talk about the plot, just talk about the feelings

Carl's previous rejection of everything was perhaps a bit extreme. But looking around us, a friend's positive invitation may be turned down a few times, and even some people who don't like it will not hesitate to find a reason to refuse. If we make the decision of the bank to lend, we will doubt the ability of the other party to repay the loan, and will not hesitate to print "decline" on the paper. Not to mention sending a beggar back to "home" with all the money!

In real life, how many people have become accustomed to rejection, not malicious, but just to protect themselves. Adhering to the principle of "everything is easy", just sweep the snow in front of your door! However, we live mediocrely in our own small circle, empty, just like Carl. Gradually, I lost my passion for life, but I comforted myself by saying: Ordinary is also a blessing!

After watching the film, I was deeply reflecting on myself, and many of the pictures seemed to see my own shadow - the me who set up a high wall is invincible!

If there are many nonsensical scenes in the film that make us laugh, then after the film ends, we need to cover up and ponder seriously. Yes, people who say yes to everything, at least don't be timid to refuse! Doing something boldly may be the perfect answer to this short decades of life!

PS: Support Jim Carrey! Support nonsense! haha~~~
