If you want, you can
This movie teaches us that if you realize everything you have
around you, and add it to the knowledge, skills and talent you
have, you can really do what you want, everything you dream.
S2. VIANNY KATHERINE GUZMAN
I learned that the only obstacle in life that prevents you from
fulfilling your goals is yourself, it is understood that life is
never rosy, we will always encounter situations that will test
us every moment of our life and you are the only one who
decides how to give them the best solution.

Happiness is not the absence of problems is the ability to get
ahead with them.

The movie when I was watching it made me feel mixed
emotions as it went from sadness to joy and made me
remember memories of my childhood.
S2. VIANNY KATHERINE GUZMAN
It made me feel a lump in my throat and for a moment I took
the place of the actor. I have my children and I imagine the
situation so difficult, I could not contain my tears, there were
many feelings found sad despair pain and much joy.
S3. NINFA YAVINA DEL CASTILLO
It made me reflect on whether giving up can help me achieve
my dreams. I must change the way or the way to reach them
but never give up.

It is related since he studied psychology the compartment that
the protagonist makes to achieve his goals to get ahead with
his son no matter what difficulties he presents himself along
the way, we must continue fighting for dreams.
S2. I am a student of industrial engineering, it is related in the
way that I can know the situation through which each person
goes through I can also demonstrate the qualities of a person's
abilities and knowledge.
S3. NINFA YAVINA DEL CASTILLO
Happiness is subjective: for many, happiness is being a
millionaire, for others it is about getting a family, having
children, etc. for others it is finishing their studies, being a
professional, building their own companies. While for others
they are happy traveling and knowing the world. The same
thing happens in psychology, many are happy with an office,
others continue to specialize, others work in hospitals with sick
children, others are in schools. Everyone is looking for their
happiness in every field that the career brings.
