You often hear a restaurant waiter say, "If I hadn't dropped out of school and gone to college, I would have mixed better than I am now, at least without looking at the faces of the guests." A programmer said, "If I had listened to my family's arrangement to take the civil service exam, I would have been more relaxed than I am now, at least not always staying up late writing code." An unmarried lady said, "If I hadn't rejected the pursuit of the rich second generation when I was in college, I would have had a better life than I am now, at least I don't have to go on a blind date on the weekend." Whenever we look back on the past, we always complain that some of the decisions of that year were wrong, if God is willing to give us another chance to choose, I will certainly not decide as I did, time in real life will not flow backwards, but in this dream factory in the movie, you can go back to the past...

Teach your son to play basketball
After this return, we see mike as an "old father" teaching his son to play basketball as a friend, so that his son can regain confidence, and he is also psychological counseling for his daughter who was abandoned by the scumbag, so that her daughter can get out of the shadow of lost love, in fact, this is also the examination and reflection of his own youth.
There's a conversation between Mike and my daughter that I remember most vividly: "When you're young, everything looks like the end of the world, it's not, it's just the beginning, you may meet some worse fucking eggs, but one day you will meet a boy who will see you as a treasure and accompany you like a sunset and sunrise".
Father's words

In a life that has long been predestined, we should not be afraid or regretful.
