Series: 13 Reasons Why Season 01 (2017)

 🎥 Butterfly Effect. 


Reflection
I can never justify the act of taking one's own life ever. But, I feel it's important to understand or consider the reasons why someone slips into this unfortunate path. With social media taking over our lives, peer pressure and need for social acceptance have reached new heights. It is imperative for parents, teachers and students to understand how it is affecting our minds; understand how our words and actions may affect others, be considerate of each other's feelings and support them in due time.

Life is hard. It will try to pull you down in some way or the other and it is natural to feel broken or lost. We must not give up no matter how bad it seems. The challenge is to fight it and figure out a way back into life.

Series Details
'13 Reasons Why' is an American teen drama web television series developed for Netflix by Brian Yorkey, based on the 2007 novel 'Thirteen Reasons Why' by Jay Asher.
Genres: Teen Drama, Mystery and Thriller
Country: United States of America   
Language: English

"Time moves us in circles,

Divines (2016)

Money! Money! Money!


Reflection 
There are some stories that help us realize how fortunate we are and all our problems or shortcomings appear smaller under it's glow.  

In the name of fairness, we created a system where money doesn't grow on trees (or fall off from trees), we have to earn it.
It is one of those stories that makes us question, what is right or wrong ? Do we take into account the circumstances or context to figure out what is ethical and what is not ? Or is it unjustified to determine what is ethical and what is not under the umbrella of context ? Why is the gap between the fortunate and less fortunate increasing with time ?

The Farewell (2019)

🎥 'To Tell or Not to tell'



Reflection
Each one of us will die one day. Would it make a difference if we could know 'when' we would stop breathing ?

Would you prefer to 'know' the time of your appointment with death ? or would you prefer to 'not know' the time of your appointment with death.  

Favourite Line 
Nai Nai: Life is not only about what you do, it's also about how you do it. (Original dialogue is in Mandarin!)
