You have to wait patiently, the waves you have been waiting for

This film is very suitable to watch after experiencing great setbacks. It gives people a lot of courage to persevere and gives people a reason to believe in God.
God designed all this to protect some people from harm.
I like the atmosphere of Bethany's family at the beginning. There are five people in a family who share common interests. They are happy in the waves.
The most beautiful moment of Bethany was in Thailand, when she took that little Thai girl to surf. Lively. And this trip allowed her to see the world outside of surfing. Let her find her way again.
She said: Life is like surfing. When a wave knocks you down, you have to get up immediately, because maybe the next wave is what you have been waiting for. We are always depressed about what we have lost, always forgetting to prepare for the next departure. Whenever we encounter difficulties, the correct way is to be prepared to wait for the next opportunity.
At the end of the film, the biggest competitor seemed so powerful for Bethany. In fact, our lives are full of such competitors. They are clamoring, maybe they are very powerful now, so powerful that their light will sting our eyes. But this is only now, why bother. Who can tell the future clearly, as long as we have a brave heart, never fear the opponent, and face the challenge with a smile is what we should do.
I also liked what Bethany's father said while comforting her. B asked me what should I do now. He said: I don't know, you just have to pray before that comes.
The GRE teacher also gave us a sentence, young I need to work hard and wait patiently. We all understand the desperate efforts, but many times we forget to wait. I always feel that after hard work we will gain. In fact, hard work only increases the probability of success. We shouldn't ask for so much. How many people have to wait a lot longer than us. Those opportunities should belong to them. We just need to accumulate. Well, we need to wait, wait for the wave that suits us best, and make the most beautiful moves. Gorgeously bypassed the opponent and smiled at the front.

    All-round mediocre film, the only bright spot is the final few shots of the original story, from which you can see the kind of power the film has been trying to show.

    An American inspirational film based on real events, truth is power, not to mention the invincible Hawaiian scenery and eye-catching surfing performances.

Soul Surfer quotes

  • [last lines, narrating]

    Bethany Hamilton: I was born to surf. This is why I wake up at the crack of dawn everyday. This is why I endure belly rashes, reef cuts and muscles so tired they feel like needles. And I've learned life is a lot like surfing. When you get caught in the impact zone, you need to get right back up. Because you never know what's over the next wave. And if you have faith, anything is possible, anything at all.

  • Transworld Surf Reporter #1: Bethany, I'm from Transworld Surf Magazine. Are you upset you didn't win today?

    Bethany Hamilton: I didn't come to win, I came to surf.

    Fuel T.V. reporter #2: Bethany, I just wanted to ask you. If you could go back to that day, and not have gone surfing, would you do it?

    Bethany Hamilton: I wouldn't change what happened to me, because then I wouldn't have this chance. In front of all of you... this chance to, embrace more people than I ever could have with two arms.
