The classic American film “Shawshank’s Redemption” will be released again in North America after 25 years.Let me review it again.This film tells the story of Andy, a young and promising banker, who was taken to court as the murderer of his wife and his lover.The infidelity of his wife, the treachery of his lawyer, the misjudgment of the judge, the brutality of the prison guard, and the greed and despicability of the warden, all of a sudden, have pushed Andy from the peak of his life to the hell of the world.
A series of things happened in prison finally made Andy break out of prison on a night of thunder and lightning. It took him 20 years to open the door of freedom with a small hammer.
Andy’s heart is strong enough to understand the meaning of freedom to him.
Perhaps as the most classic sentence in the play:
You know some birds are not meant to be caged,their feathers are just too bright.
You should know that some birds are not meant to be caged, and their feathers are shining with freedom.
The environment may limit your behavior, but your mind will never be confined.
“These walls are very interesting. When you first went to prison, you hated them. Slowly, you got used to being in them, and finally you had to rely on them to survive. This is called institutionalization.”
This seems to be a familiar scene. It’s like waiting for you to graduate from college and enter the society,
At the beginning, you resent, complain, and have too much dissatisfaction with yourself and the society. You despise those nine to five days like prison.
Then, you run into walls everywhere, work, work overtime, and live emotionally. It seems that everything is not very smooth. Gradually, you give up fighting and accept compromise. You start to be stable and no longer take risks,
Like Lao Bu, who is used to prison life, he can’t leave “institutionalization”.
Although it is difficult to escape from prison with stone walls, it is more difficult to escape from prison with spirit and thought.
When you are down, when you are in trouble, when you are in the “system”, do you calmly think about how to get out of trouble?
You should know that your mind is the only way to decide whether you are free. When you are willing to face difficulties bravely, open a window for your heart in adversity.
When you think about how to live a better life without losing your way, you can really find freedom.
With hope, there will always be hope
“Remember,Hope is a good thing,maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies.”
There is hope that good things may be the best things in the world. Good things never die.
If the heart is a cage, it is a cage everywhere. Freedom is not outside, but inside. ”
I still remember that Wang Xiaobo said such a sentence.
I was 21 years old that year. In the golden age of my life, I had many expectations. I want to love, eat, and turn into a half-dark cloud in the sky. Later, I learned that life is a slow process of being hammered. As people get older, their hopes disappear day by day, and finally become like cattle being hammered. ”
A man’s life in accordance with the law is life, old age, sickness and death, but that does not mean that he can give up hope.
Giving up hope is always a coward’s option.
Because hope is like the sun in the sky, which guides you and leads you to the light. Whether you can reach it depends on you.
When you choose to cherish hope, you have the chance to embrace success. When you sink and give up hope, you will lose the chance to see the sun and feel sorry for yourself all day long.
I hope you always have light in your eyes and waves in your heart
Maybe you will find
Although there are still many bad things in the world, and many times the world makes you despair, you should always believe that there are good things when there are bad things. Look at the world from a different perspective,
Freedom and hope are always yours.
Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.A strong can save himself,a great man can save others.
Cowardness imprisons people’s souls. Hope can make you feel free. The strong save themselves, the sage save others.
