About Time (2013) – Time Travel is probably the
wish of many. How people wish to travel to the future to see what they future
might be like and to travel to the past to fix their lives. Wrong decisions, stupid
responses and regrets are so common in life. It will be very nice if we can
return to the last winter to remake our decision. After learning that he can
travel to his past, Tim makes lots of travel to remake his decisions. In the
end, Tim realizes that traveling through time to fix things will also make him
lose many things in life. The point of life is not to keep on returning to the
past to fix lives but to cherish every moment and to look at the bright side in
every moment of life. Well, it is true that we err, we also do have many unhappy
moments but above all, life can be meaningful. To be honest, we have lost much
of our precious and enriching time. We can never gain back the precious moment
we have lost. We will lose much more time if we do not live our presence fully.
You can look at the barista and smile at the person or you may also miss that
opportunity to create joy. You can do your work whilst enjoying a wonderful cup
of coffee yet also smile at a kid who sits next to you cheerfully. You can give
a hand to someone who has difficulty to open the door and let her experience
that the world is not all bad after all. Small thoughts and small acts at time
makes much differences. If you live life to the fullness despite its
imperfectness, you don’t have to travel to the past.
