The movie based on true story that inspired me

“The Blind Side” is the extraordinary true story of Michael Oher (Baltimore Raven’s 2009 NFL Draft pick) and the Tuohy family. I truly believe that this is movie is an instant classic in the making; an uplifting, inspirational, heart warming true story of love, redemption, and hope.

It is based on the true story of the Tuohy family, and their adopted family member, Michael Oher, who graduated from high school, went to Ole Miss, and was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens of the NFL.  It is an inspiring story. The movie is filled with valuable lessons, about compassion and the challenge of rising above horrific circumstances. It is about the difference that one person ,in this case, one family can make in a human life.  

 Based on the true story of Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy who take in a homeless teenage African-American, Michael "Big Mike" Oher. Michael has no idea who his father is and his mother is a drug addict. Michael has had little formal education and few skills to help him learn. Leigh Anne soon takes charge however, as is her nature, ensuring that the young man has every opportunity to succeed. When he expresses an interest in football, she goes all out to help him, including giving the coach a few ideas on how best to use Michael's skills. They not only provide him with a loving home, but hire a tutor to help him improve his grades to the point where he would qualify for an NCAA Division I athletic scholarship. Michael Oher was the first-round pick of the Baltimore Ravens in the 2009 NFL draft.

Accept the differences

What I find amazing in this movie is how nicely all the members of the Tuohy family accepted Michael in to their lives. They accepted the differences but never made Michael feel like an outsider. I find it incredible that even after having a black president, people in America can be so prejudiced and racists. What the Tuohy family did was fascinating and heartwarming.

Starting friendships in the most unknown circumstances with the most unlikely person.

Sometimes it is so hard for us to be friend with someone that  we are not unfamiliar with. But as a good person we should  know them first before we jump into any conclusion. Just try to be nice and treat them well. We never know their attitudes and kindness until we be friend with them. This can be seen when the tuohy's daughter and son make a good relationship with Michael even though they not know each other. Their relationship become stronger and stronger and they are just like a one family.

Gratitude for the small things that we take for granted.

  For me, every single scene was exceptionally moving and made me realize above all how many things we take for granted and how easily we forget how incredibly lucky and blessed we are to have things like food, shelter and a loving and caring family. Leanne Tuohy is an incredible woman who saved a life from being ruined by poverty and negligence. She is a true hero who opened not only her home but also her heart to this misunderstood boy who was just lost.

For a change, doing the right and the hard thing, irrespective of what the world might say.

In this story it reminds me that I should do whatever that I want to do and just ignore what the people around would say about me. It doesn't matter what others think as long as I know what I am doing and I will never give up to prove that what I did is right. In this story, Michael did not believe in him and he did not feel confidence to face the world but Leigh Ann would always say that he can do it and now he become successful man.

 

Determination and persistence

Besides that, the story inspired me that no matter how hard it was to catch my dreams, never feel give up. Determination and persistence is the main key to succeed in life. Always believe in myself and just keep going even though there are many obstacles that I have to face.

Always feel grateful

 There were many scenes that just gutted me. One of them is the time when Michael goes in to the school carrying a polythene bag made me want to beg for forgiveness so badly. I have a perfectly fine bag but I’ve been saving up money and wanting to buy a nice, branded bag that made a statement. Well, carrying a polythene bag certainly makes a statement. 

There still some hope

The Blind Side carries a lot of tough life lessons, none easy to adapt to. But it tells me that in this cruel and bad world, where all Hollywood cares about is making big budget flicks about the world ending, there still is some hope. There still are people who do good and have pure hearts. People, who might not look big on the outside, but have really big hearts and have the infinite capacity to love and affect change.

Never judge a book by its cover

In a nutshell, from the story, we know that we should never judge a book by its cover. Never judge someone based on his or her looks. Someone should be treated well even though she or he does not seem good in front of us. Just accept their differences and never treat them based on their appearances and personalities.
