The Farewell

Such an amazing movie! I just finished re-watching it again today since it is currently Free to watch with ads on Youtube. 11/10 would recommend this beautiful movie! It is so relatable in so many levels. It really makes me reflect on my own family and culture. Although we have our differences and do not always meet eye to eye, my family means everything to me even though I don't really express it. This movie is a reminder to myself and to everyone to cherish every moment with your family because life is short and unpredictable, none of us know how long we have on this Earth. With each passing day, all of us are just getting older. My parents, my grandma, my aunts, my uncles, my brother, my cousins and myself. I know that these past few years I have made it an effort to try to see my family more often, to prioritize them. My time with them is limited, especially with my grandma. She is the last living grandparent I have and I want to be as present as I can and cherish every moment with her. I know that simply just going over for dinner and eating with her makes her so happy. The best gift you can give anyone, especially your family, is your time.
