Black and bright can be considered opposite. However, it seems to me that there is a thread of connection between the two: I call it ‘black with bright’. Black is a story of a deaf-blind girl, Michelle McNally. It is inspired by the life of the famous author and activist, Helen Keller. It is about never giving up Michelle’s dreams and her achievements to become a graduate. And there is another main character in this movie.
Her name is Debraj Sahai and he is a teacher who takes an important role having a great influence on Michelle’s life. He travels teaching Michelle for the first time but as Michelle opens her mind, Debraj could give her a life of dignity. And Michelle finally made it getting over her handicap by pursuing knowledge going beyond the ordinary limits of all barriers, but physical and emotional. And I want to tell you about my friend, who admires and loves them the most.
I met her when I was a high school student. And at that time, I was suffering from depression to the extreme.For me, it was too hard to get along with other people. And it was extanded that I could not manage the anti-depression. But she suddenly came to my life,and she said it is okay if you are not okay with your life. She said, “Light can be regarded as the most precious thing when we find it in the darkness. It deeply moved my mind and it significantly change my mind and full with sheer brilliance.
Since then, I started communiating with people with eye-contacted, listening to others and I tried my best to experience anything as much as possible. And the most interesting thing is that when Debraj met Michelle for the first time. The very first word he taught her is 'black'.It seems to be contradictory. But the word 'black' have powerful meaning of being bright. And of course, I no longer take pills. Threfore, I believe light can be existed in my mind as courage, hope and love.
I want to become a person who turns on the lights in the darkness. That is the reason why I want to like to be like Michelle. I want to provide glimpses of light to those who sit in darkness during their lives; As you know, light can always shine in the darkness There is no such thing because the darkness cannot overcome the light but the light can overcome the darkness.
Thank you
