PART 3 - Thoughts
“My child, you must look on the bright side.”
“What? What are you talking about, ‘the bright side’? Mom, you were shot in the face. There is no bright side.”
“Of course there is. Now you’re officially the best-looking person in the family.”
在鬼门关走过一遭之后，不是惊慌，不是表达自己的无助，而是要Trevor look on the bright side, 什么是乐观，不是一篇篇心灵鸡汤的说教，是在危难面前的镇定，这大概就是所谓的见过“大世面”。
“She broke out in a huge smile and started laughing. Through my tears, I started laughing, too. I was bawling my eyes out and laughing hysterically at the same time. We sat there and she squeezed my hand and we cracked each other up the way we always did, mother and son, laughing together through the pain in an intensive-care recovery room on a bright and sunny and beautiful day.”
这幅画面超级美好，想像一下医院的病房，暖暖的午后，母亲脱离危机，自己本来泣不成声，被母亲的话逗笑，一束阳光打在屋子里，这就是幸福的模样，不管之前经历过什么都好，至少现在的我和母亲是平安的在一起的。 也让自己想起了自己骨折住院的那段日子。要珍惜时光。
读完这一章，作者的母亲很执拗，选择了就不停地在坚持，同作者不理解有些他母亲的坚持一样，我也不理解，亦或许是自己还是个“宝宝”不理解母亲有些时候的想法吧。作者的母亲很伟大，我的妈妈也很伟大，在我眼里丝毫不逊色。
