Its 6:20 in the morning and its more than 18 hours that I am wide awake. After my 12 midnight end shift work, I always tend to get my self busy with things co'z I know my eyes would not collapse yet the moment I come home.
I just finished watching 127 Hours which starred one great actor, James Franco. From the words of my friends mouth, its a good watch thus I was so curious and wanted to have a peak.
The story was actually based on reality. This were all experiences of Aaron Ralston on his adventure to the Great Canyon (don't know exactly which state was it in the US but I know its one God's great grandeur.)
These experiences have put some realization to Ralston's life. Only when the worst case scenario came that he have thought he has been selfish and has been so happy-go-lucky without even knowing that he has already neglected his duty as a son, a friend, a lover and as an individual.
Sometimes we would all feel the same way as Ralston. We forget our responsibilities and more often we would always think of things selfishly. (Im guilty!). Most of the times, it is only during the darkest hours of our life that we would realize how stupid we are for not even thinking of what might other people say and do and what might we have listened to that would be a good way to weigh things.
If we are in Ralston's situation, cutting his arms would have been our only escape from that rock. We are helpless and we can't find someone to pull up the rock and get our arms freed from being stuck. The reality is that it is during those time that we can then appreciate the fact that we have people around us who can help and lift us up. Thus, it is always important for every individual to learn from their mistakes and continue life despite of what had already happened.
After Ralston's escape from the rock, reality hugged him and thus still living the way he was but now along with a partner.
No man is an island. None can gain confidence if no one appreciates those little and simple things you do. It is always important to follow one rule of the thumb: "Don't let yourself be fooled by your own. Second opinion always helps thus live not alone and be a listener, a friend or a lover. A son, brother or a group member. After all, it is always rewarding to see people smiling at you because you are important to them.
For the movie alone, its one great eye opener for people who are bounded by his mind and his own. Open up and see things not just by the way how you see it and let the people around you tell them how they see it and weight it.
A must see movie!
