Leap year

698 views. 2012-3-2 22:03

I happened to watch the movie named leap year for second time last evening, and I got much new feeling through watch it again.

1stly, again, I was quite shocked by the beautiful view of the Ireland country, like a fluent series of postcards. I remembered one of my girlfriends who said she would go to the Ireland for a travel in 1 year. I wish she could realize it, and it must be an enjoyment to see the photos.

2nd, when the girl back to the man, she said, I got all the thing I wanted, but I find they were not what I needed, so I come back to you. These words make me think for a while. What is I really want, and what is myself really need? Really is hard question.

For long time, since we graduated from college, we all jumped into this running race. House, or better to say accommodation, car, high salary, all these attract young people to rush. Yes, all these are what we want, and nobody stop to think for a while, whether these are truly we need. And what are we truly need, inside and outside, sorry, don’t know. The society teaches that, those are all people want, go, just go for it, and then you will be happy!

So all people believe that to get those big houses and car is a necessary step to arrive in happy. Happy is amazing, we all long for it. Then we could never settle down at our present situation, always feel now is not good, now is not a happy life. The life, true life, ideal life is in somewhere not here, far away, at least after we get those thing!

And we can’t stay in peace, maybe for a long time, maybe for ever.

They said leap year is a way to make up the previous rushing time in calendar. Why not we also take it as a chance to have a break, just to appreciate the views alongside, or to find out what is the difference between need and want.

True feelings, new thinking, good. But you'd better write it in a formal way so as to improve the accuracy of your articles.

Fully agree. Always be ready to take a break and think, especially during an inflection.

asacao: en, nice words!
there is also a saying in Latin, Carpe Diem, which is a line in the film"Dead Poets Society". it means seize the day.

i saw the movie Leap Year last year. it's indeed a beautiful countryside and the OST is also great. Amy Adams is one of my favorite actresses, too.

Your movie review is great!
