There is no tomorrow.
Phil is woken up on time by the alarm clock every day, he gets up to meet a fixed person to say hello, he is not angry to go back, when he finds that there is no tomorrow anyway, no matter what you do, do not have to bear the consequences, Phil began to take the initiative to use the infinite today to pamper his sister overnight, steal the money from the bank car to squander the day, in the report viciously satirize the local boring festival, etc. Until Phil began to focus on his colleague Rita, he tried to accumulate experience through over and over again to understand her preferences, In hope, he came to spend the night winning Rita's favor, but no matter how he tried, he could not complete the task in a day, and Phil gave up after being slapped by Rita countless times.

Escape may be a process of life, but it is never the way out.
Phil began to reflect, he decided to temper and change himself in this painful struggle, he began to take the initiative to greet the people around him, give them warm hugs, take the initiative to bring breakfast to colleagues, report the celebration seriously, use unlimited time to learn piano, ice sculpture and other skills, catch the little boy who fell from the tree, help the old beggar father to feel the happy life of the last day, help the man stuck in food spit out until he became the most popular single man in the whole town. Phil's comprehensive change from the inside out finally attracted Rita to hug, the two still shared the same room as usual, Phil poured out his love to the sleeping Reita, and then quietly waited for the arrival of the new day, this time woke up, Rita did not leave, Phil really ushered in a new day.
What would you do if you were stuck in one place, exactly the same every day, and nothing could change the situation?
Just like the state of people's lives in reality, when today and tomorrow are no different, the boundaries of time become blurred, and people lose themselves in the eternal daily life and stumble through the years.
Romain Rolland once said that most people die at the age of twenty or thirty, because after this age, they are only shadows of themselves, and the rest of their lives are only imitating themselves, day after day, more mechanically, more pretentiously repeating what they have done, thought, loved and hated in their lifetimes.
Each of us will eventually face ourselves and compete with ourselves, ultimately redeeming ourselves by changing ourselves.
