Look Both Ways And For Sure You Will Be Okay
Have you ever questioned your choices in life? Like having the 'what ifs' of every situation you're dealing with.. whether you're just picking which flavor of ice cream to order or you're having a hard time deciding if you'll attend an event or not.
What would life and love be if you chose a different path?
What would your life look like if you didn't marry your husband/wife?
What would your life be if you didn't take that course?
I was looking for a movie to watch yesterday after I watched the House of the Dragon episode 2 when I chanced upon the movie Look Both Ways.
I basically thought that the movie is about a girl who lives the best of both worlds but I was wrong.
Natalie, the main character, is an aspiring animator who's about to graduate college. Then one night, she was in the bathroom, with her bff, taking a pregnancy test that changed her life. Was it positive? or negative?
That's the beginning of the story. It tackles the two different possible paths for Natalie.
Why did I like the movie?
Aside from the fact that it is a movie starring Lili Reinhart, I also liked the plot. It is very relatable!
If you're a young adult like me, things about decision making, friendship, relationship with our parents, and also love life were catered in this movie. Oh I almost forgot, it's also pursuing what you really love.
Lessons I've Learned from this movie
What's meant for you will always find its way.
True enough, what's destined for us is for us. Even with the detours and not yets of life, if it is meant to be, it will be.
They say we'll regret the choices we didn't pick and the chances we didn't take but along the way, those choices and chances will emerge once again, maybe not in the same form but in the way that's suitable to our current situation. I am a believer that things that are meant for me will find its way to me no matter what, no matter how, no matter when.
You will be okay.
Whichever path we take, whatever decision we make... at the end of the day, we will be okay. There are several instances when we thought it's already the end of us, like there's no chance of getting back up again but in reality, there is and we'll survive. Life is tough but we are tougher.
If you happen to watch this movie, let us know your thoughts too. It's available on Netflix but you can also watch it here.
