In the movie, I see that life is so fragile that it can be taken away so quickly.
In one scene, a swinging wire cut through a body and the upper part fell into the lake.
In another, thousands of people's body were taken, entirely leaving only bones, or more grossly partially leaving parts of body dangling, after helplessly being eaten by Piranhas.
Shall we have fear over death?
I believe part of our brain, the lymbic system that is responsible for our survival, does have fear which is important to our survival.
The question is: are we being unconsciously driven by fear, or do we consciously dance with fear?
In the movie, thousands of people died despite of their fear and desperation for escape. One Sheriff, in performing his duty, died with no fear.
There are 3 other people, with love, overcome fear to rescue people, including those they love and care dearly.
What I see is that - we will all die.
Even without piranhas, we will all die. So it is not a question of whether we die.
The question is: how do we want to die.
Have you thought of how you want to die?
This question may lead the ancient samurais to the spirit of Bushido - the warrior spirit that overcome fear and death.
Think about it, and leave a comment here.
Stay tuned.
