Sometimes it takes more courage to choose to live than to choose to die.

When the movie progressed to the scene where a family had a car accident, I realized that this was a film that thought about life from a near-death experience as a starting point. I think of another similar film is Lovely Bone, full of affection and memories.
I can't help thinking, what is supporting us to survive? Our past, or our future? Or those we love?

When we were alive, we never realized that we have so many things: loving our parents, boyfriends, younger brothers, girlfriends, grandparents; and hobbies that we pursue. When we want to lose them, we recall their bit by bit, will we fight with our destiny to stay with them.
When the hostess knew that her parents and brother were all dead, she once gave up her will to survive. Although the waiting room was full of relatives and friends who were sad, tired and sincerely looking forward to the girl's awakening; although his grandfather was beside the hospital bed, he resisted the bitter grief and said to the girl: I want you to survive...but If it is too difficult, you are tired and want to give up, I understand; although knowing that you leave will make your boyfriend unhappy; though. . . . However, if you woke up from the edge of life and death and found that you were an orphan, this cruel reality might be more painful than death.

Sometimes, choosing to live is more courageous than choosing to die.

At the end, when the heroine is about to die, the hero promptly releases a big move, using a violin song, an acceptance letter, and a guitar song to finally wake up the heroine. She finally understood that she could still live on the cross of life, and those painful or warm memories were all love.

ps: At least through this film, I also know of a Chinese cellist——Ma Youyou, Baidu, tut, it’s amazing.

    Mia Hall: At the age of 26, Ludwig Beethoven went deaf, ending his career as a successful concert pianist. But determined not to let a little thing like his hearing end his music career, my pal Ludwig became a composer. Turned out the new gig suited him. It's like that old saying, "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans." Take my dad. When my little brother, Teddy, was born, he quit his band to get a real job. But then he fell in love with teaching. Now he spends his days in the mosh pit that is high school English class. Or my mom, a riot girl who found her calling as a part-time travel agent and a full-time supermom. These days she only moshes with Teddy.

    Kat: Schooch over, dude.
