Pay It Forward

Also from my other Blog:
There's this old film, Pay It Forward. You've heard? It's really something, way different from films which have little meaning. I will watch This type of film rather than to watch Harry Potter films and so on. It's a beautiful film. Bittersweet. But I dare say that if Trevor had loved his enemy, I know it's hard, but if he had done them a favor full of grace, mercy and compassion, things can change. Perhaps, even if he couldn't, get help from an adult, from someone who could help. If there wasn't anyone, you say? Shout! Say "Fight me if you want!"? Hmmm, don't know about that. But you must ask them something which can hit them in the heart. You know what I mean? There is always a reason somehow. Like why the bully did it. Do you really think it's for pure fun? Do you know what could have impacted him? Problems? What problems? In every person, there's a conscience, there's a heart, a soul, a mind. I feel sad for the bully the most. People can honour and love the dead Trevor. It's so much easier loving him, no? Well, I know that God will most probably deal with him in a very pleasant way, He will reward him good and bad too. So he's done and gone. But what about the bully? Have you ever thought that there can be another life story forming not to be left out? In fact, we have unique life stories, different from one another. What we do in our own life stories affect other people's life stories. People change. The bully can change too. Who are we to judge and criticize him? Aren't we all the same? Instead, guide him with love, mercy, grace and compassion. We ought to give endless chances to one another just as God has to us. Sorry if I sound idealistic and weird and religious. But in the name of Jesus, we need to also learn to love our enemies. It can be hard but when you really do it for real, you just get something out of the ordinary, the feeling is overpowering no matter how slow the progress is.Right, the main point of the film is that you are to make an impact on at least 3 people, and tell the 3 to do the same to another 3 and so on. This is a movement, started by a mere boy. From a Social Studies project, he wanted to make a difference in the world of today. He wanted to do unexpected favors for just at least 3 people, not wanting them to return the favor to him but to PAY IT FORWARD to others with the same mind. One can Pay It Forward to loved ones, but more importantly, to strangers and even enemies who really need an impact in their lives. Some may not be able to follow it, as easy as it seems for they may be shy. But surely, as time passes and the atmosphere changes, the hot potato, even when turned cold, can be reheated and passed on. This movement no doubt changes lives, lives which you have not even met, and yet you have had an indirect impact on others. One flap of a butterfly's wings in South America can cause a typhoon in China. The end of the film is bittersweet. The boy who started the movement was unfortunately killed. Nonetheless, the world and his wife came to hear about his influential and impactive movement, paying tributes to him at the end of the film. This Pay It Forward movement continued and has not stopped since. This boy has made a step towards humanity, ebbing away the self-centered attitude of mankind. Bravo!
