Hope is a good thing
The movie named the shawshank redemption told us a story about a banker called Andy Dufresne who is convicted and jailed for the murder of his wife. His life is changed.
The life in the shawshank redemption is a life-long nightmare. Severe and unbearable rule and punishment, what¡¯s more, the same routine life; boring and dull make them isolated from the outside world. The high wall can isolate the freedom of the physical body, but it can't isolate the freedom of the mind. Andy Dufresne have strong will in his mind that hope is a good thing .his inmate friend red told him good is dangerous thing ,especially in
the jail. There can be miracles when you believe though hope is frail. It¡¯s hard to kill. Who knows what miracle you can achieve! Andy found many meaningful and beneficial things to do .during the imprisoned life time he is digging a channel led to the outside bit by bit. A continues dripping water can wear through a stone. we all know that life is too short for waiting, but I also know that life is long enough for doing something that really turns me on and energize me .......hope is a good thing always it is .after watched the movie, I thought a lot about my life . Do I still have hope in my future life? I always complained about my present life .always resented my boring life .never think about how to change it. I am awake now .clearly awake! I don¡¯t want to become the frog which is boiled by the warm water step by step!
If you have hope you can overcome anything no matter what our situation.
