The metaphor's used in this movie are great for making you reflect!

I love how this movie shows just how good we have it today. We don't have to struggle for food, beg for water, or pray for fire. I didn't want to miss anything in this movie, because every moment of it was important. They did a very good job of making you feel his loneliness, and understand all the pain he went through.
One part of the ending i enjoyed, was when he was at the crossroad trying to decide where to go. It both showed that nothing in this life lasts forever (his relationship with his wife), and that you need to keep an eye out to make sure you take advantage of what the "tide will bring." The ending was very sad, but also helps remind you of the important things in life that you have right now.
Very glad i watched this movie, i learned some things from it !!
