I want to tell you about a movie that I saw and will never forget. I saw this film a few years ago and it was a really good one, but I forgot the name of it. Even so, I can say that this was one of the best movies I have ever seen. The main characters of this movie were a young couple, and they had a happy life until he had a bad dream. One day, he woke up noticing it was raining and was about to go to work when he noticed there was no food in the fridge so, he decided to eat his breakfast out. Before he left, he said bye to his girlfriend and promised her he would attend her concert that night. On the way to work, he bought a cup of coffee and muffin, and ran in a rush to work. He came to the office and was preparing his presentation, but he couldn't find his document and called his girlfriend and asked her to bring it to his office. After a busy day, he went to her concert which was really successful. She already had a plan to go to another city to do a concert, but she hadn’t told him about her plan. When he learned her plan, he got very angry and they had a fight. Then his girlfriend just left. He went back home, and he received a call from the hospital and they told him his girlfriend had been in an accident. When he went to the hospital, he found out that she had already died. He was just looking at her body and he felt so helpless. He felt like it was the end of the world, and he cried so sadly. Suddenly, he heard his girlfriend call his name and when he opened his eyes, he realized that it was just a dream, and he was glad he woke up. He checked the weather before he got up and it was raining-just like in his dream. After that, all the things that happened was the same as his dream. He was shocked. He tried to make it different, but he failed. It was then he figured out that the dream was about to be realized-he would have to face that this was really going to happen. He decided to give her a memorable day in her life and he planned everything as she wished. After the concert, she told him about her plan and he said he will go with her. They called a taxi to the train station and he promised himself will protect her. A car unexpectantly went up on the sidewalk by the train station and would have hit and killed her, but he jumped in front of it to save his girlfriend. Yes, he did, he sacrificed himself instead of his girlfriend. He gave his life, so she could live.

This story is really touching, but we never notice that a lot of people sacrifice themselves to give us a better life, and how precious they are to us. We never think of what we will do if someday they just are removed from our lives. We always show them our bad side and never appreciate what they have done for us. Life is too short to correct your mistakes once they happen, just live like yesterday never existed, and don't leave any regrets behind us, spend our limited time on some valuable things and precious people around us.
