Useless benefits

The comedy starring Jim Carrey is not a crazy comedy like "Grange in Disguise", but he still performs in that way, which seems a bit out of place.

But the story is still good. A closed and gloomy person, because of betting with people, can only say "yes" to other people's requirements. Since then, he has stepped out of the closed space, has become optimistic and positive, and has also gained love. Of course, when his girlfriend found out that he had been saying good things with no sincerity, he walked away, but in the end he moved her with his true feelings, and the two were back together.

I happened to read the new weekly feature "Do Something Useless", which fits well with this movie. Because everything is "good", Mr. Hao ended up doing a lot of useless things, learning to fly a plane, learning Korean, giving loans to everyone, and even giving the homeless a ride to pay him back money, just some of these useless things , let him get a promotion and find a lover. I'm not saying that everything that's useless is ultimately useful and that it brings us immediate benefits. The real benefit is actually indirect, that his life has become colorful and sunny since then, and he understands that what life is like is entirely up to his own choices.
