Life is Beautiful
Reaction:
I felt moved with pity by the ending of the story or of its outcome. I realized that because of innocence we can escape all the burdens and pains this world brings us but in the realms of truth we are lying to ourselves and hiding from our shadow. This film teached me how a life is beautiful for an inocent child who don't know the true colors of the rainbow. That behind the different colors lies the colors of black and white wich is inseparable. I would like to comment that the film was really ingenious and it awakens in me the reality of life wich others cannot see. it's like a decoding of the mystery of life. It is because some people finds life as absurd and some finds it beautiful. Maybe, the former have accepted the reality of life and it's true color while the latter just cling to the innocence which prevents them from experiencing the ugly truth of life. I am pretty sure that not all of the students finds studying beautiful some wanted to escape from it by choosing to be a fool( innocent). By doing noting of what they should do as a students. Thus, i can say that those who move backward to innocence are those people who are coward that can't or don't know how to handle the detours of life. It does not mean that we must face the reality and therefore the absurdity of life but it simply means that ''nothing is either good or bad but thinking makes it so''said Shakespear. So, what we need to have a meaningful life is to have a positive state of mind. Optimism opts us to have the life we want to live and to be what we will. It grants us the opportunity

to grab all life gives to be uesed to become a better person or even a selfactualized person if so.
