I was having my supper during a break from report writing last night. So I decided to watch a movie during supper, as usual. I was scanning through the movies in my external hard disk and I chose"My Sister's Keeper".This is a 2009 movie adapted from a novel with the same title by Jodi Picoult. It tells the story of a 13-year-old Anna who litigates her parents for medical emancipation when she is expected to donate a kidney to her sister Kate, who is dying from leukemia.
My first drop of tears rolled down within the first 10 minutes. It was a very heartbreaking movie. Tears could not stop rolling down my cheeks ever since the first drop. This is the first time I experienced tears "leaking" out of my eyes from the beginning until the end of a movie.
As I was watching the movie, I realized the importance of health. Actually, all of us do know the importance of health and we also know that money cannot buy health. But very often most of us took our health for granted. We think that we are still young and healthy. Thus, we do not really take good care of it.
However, the truth is we cannot predict the future. We do not know will we continue to stay healthy or will we get struck by any diseases. *touch wood* When someone is sick, he or she is not the only who suffers, but the entire family.
So what was in my head when I was watching the movie was I was very grateful that my family and I are healthy so far, we do not have any major illness. So I was also praying that we will continue to stay healthy in the future. Not only my family and I, but everyone I know. I really hope that everyone will stay healthy.
Well, I really lost much tears last night. The one good thing that happened out of the "crying session" was my eyes felt better after that (My eyes felt dry during yesterday evening, and I used some Eye Mo drops but to no avail). Surprisingly, my eyes felt much better after crying. I guess watching a heart-breaking movie is also effective in treating tired and dry eyes.
