So this blog entry is and isn't just for extra credit. This blog entry is to show what the movie Alive showed me. First of all the movie was a good movie; I'd say if the goal was to inspire its viewers then they will surely succeed but then it could have been better if we saw the whole movie, by that I mean even the night scenes oh which I think was really relevant to the story. So as I was saying this blog entry is to show what the movie taught me as an individual and it's no never ever give up no matter what. 16 survivors out of 45, that's a pretty big number already if you would consider the things and the experiences they had to go through, but that 16 would have not been possible if it weren't for their will to actually live despite the impossibilities. To me the strongest message of the story, among all other messages, is to never give up and always have hope. You see those young men aren't even adult enough, they are merely but students, rugby players who turned out to be part to be a catastrophe. Their lives, young lives, were put in peril and sure danger, even sure death but all these they overcame. They were stuck for more than 2 months and yet because they wanted to live they did. If I would be in that situation I'd say there's but a few percentage that I would live because I'm not as strong as them. This story goes with everything in life. There may be times wherein life throws a big punch, a punch that was made with a full swing. But then what? Do we stay on the ground and cry like babies? Do I let it get the best out of me? Answer is HELL NO! I am in no position to do such. Those 16 survivors had the worst of life they they managed to make up their mind and hit it back, hit life back so hard they won.
My life isn't as adventurous as theirs, it may not be as dangerous as those 16 men but then every now and then life may throw in some stupid things right in my face but then there's no damn reason to not hit back. Everything is a test and life is the biggest, a compilation of all the tests. It sucks, I know it does; but then that won'y stop me. I won't let it get the best of me. Life is a bitch, but no matter how hard and how many times it slaps me I'm going to fight back. I'm going to face what is ahead and whats laid right in front with all courage and determination, like those 16 men. I will live my life the way it should and I'm going to give life a damn good fight. :)
:) Smile Always :)
