First of all, I will tell you how it relates to our life. Well, you probably have an experience of being sad because of other people saying things without thinking, right? Or you might have felt bad, watching some people killing animals, not thinking about the consequence, haven't you? These situations are related to the video, 'Spring'. Like the boy in the video, many people made some mistakes, because they didn't think about the effect of their acts. Many people would have felt angry because of other people, who aren't responsible for their actions or what they have said. Likewise, the movie is related with our life closely.
Now, I will tell you the thing I have experienced. First, I have felt sorry once, when someone got hurt because of me. For instance, my friends and parents felt bad because of me, so I felt sad, and learned a lesson- Actions I do and words I say without thinking hardly, could hurt other people's feelings a lot. So, I have to think about the effect my actions would give before say or do something. My next example is when I caught a dragonfly.
I was young when I experienced the event. I was playing and I caught a small dragonfly. It was so weak that it died suddenly in my hand, and its torn, I felt so surprised that I left it on the ground and ran away, crying. I would never forget the event! I felt so sorry to the dragonfly. I shouldn't have caught the tiny, weak dragonfly. I prayed to the dead dragonfly. I still feel bad that I caught it, didn't think about the consequence. These were my personal examples about the relation to the movie 'Spring' .
Well, you would now have understood the lesson the 'Spring' gives, right? It teaches us that we must think before you do or say something. This is because you would feel guilt, and some people would get hurted because of you. There's a proverb says 'You can't pick up and put in the words back that you have spoken.' Actions are the same. We cannot return to the time before you did something bad and regretful. In conclusion, I told you about the 'Spring', its relation to my life, and the lesson it teaches to us. Always think before you do somethings. I hope you enjoyed and thanks a lot for reading this.
You drew a good conclusion from the anecdotes you told beforehand. A very relevant work. I think you might want to talk about WHY we should think about the consequences. After all, killing a dragonfly may make you feel guilty, but it doesn't have any long term consequences. So I think the video tells you something a bit more than that. Or is the guilt itself a significant burden?
