In the war, my uncle was executed, but he was refused to go to the United States alone. He lived on the streets and experienced boyfriend betrayal. After returning home, he was depressed, divorced, went abroad again, and grandma died ... The only warmth in the film is probably the picture of Molly falling from her chest when grandma changed clothes. This picture appeared twice in the film, which is probably the spiritual core conveyed by the film to the audience-it is inspiring to maintain an optimistic and positive attitude in a bad environment.
Many times our life is not satisfactory, and most of the time is spent in troubles and pastimes. It is precisely because of this little warmth and light that we become the driving force for living. Maybe we don't need any purpose in life at all, just being put in this position by God and moving aimlessly, just like Mary Jane passively accepting it.
But God, who also appeared twice in the film, said to Mary Jane, "You still have a lot to do. Get up and shine. " Because of this sentence, Mary Jane miraculously came back from the dead and regained her vitality. Yes, our seemingly ordinary life actually has God's mind in it. Many times we will blame God and don't understand what he has done, but he will always pull us up from the bottom when we are most desperate, because his original intention is to honor him. Even in a life full of pain, Mary Jane is a completely different person. She has lost her youthful and impulsive past. She is no longer the girl who cries after hostile children all over the street in order to overthrow the sand, the rebellious girl who wears punk clothes and loves rock and roll, and the woman who gives her a peek to the police. She began to understand what her grandmother said to her: "Keep your self-esteem and be true to yourself."
? "The worst thing in the world is inferiority and revenge." Grandma's words well reflect the concept of love in Christianity. No matter how much suffering you have experienced, you can't hate people, because hate is an abomination to God. This is also the secret for grandma to keep a good attitude, because her heart is a fragrant jasmine garden without hatred pollution.
? Mary Jane's parents sent her out of the airport twice, which is undoubtedly the most worrying scene. In order to keep her away from the evil environment, her parents reluctantly gave up her love and sent her away, while she stayed in danger and suffered. Mother was always strong in front of her, but when she turned around, she fell into her father's arms and cried. The first time Mary Jane left, she was helpless and afraid, but the second time was her own decision. She found herself, even if the road ahead is still confused and dark, she has the courage to face it.
When we were young, we always imagined that when we grew up, we would become great heroes who cut through thorns, punish evil and promote good, but the cruelty of reality always gave us a slap in the face coldly. However, every life has its own pain. As long as we are loyal to ourselves and keep a jasmine-like heart, as grandma said, we will eventually return to the warm palm of God.
