Crash

We watched the movie "Crash" this week during class. It's about different people in Los Angeles who are somehow connected. They experience love, hate, hurt, prejudice, racism and even violation.  These people don't know each other but they all affect each other in a way. Just like the society today, they're all interconnected because we all go through it in life. We experience racism and hate just like the characters do. They make mistakes which help them change their lives around because they realize that they way they're living their life isn't right. They push everything away and blame others for how they feel and act when they should really be worrying about how they are themselves first before they start judging others. Some of the characters take things for granted and in the end, they're thankful for what's in front of them. "It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something." Before we start pointing fingers, we need to take step back and think about who's fault it really is instead of blaming others. This is how we learn from our mistakes so that next time we don't make it happen again and accept the fact that we messed up.
