Groot

Recently there is a movie playing in the Cinema call Guardian of The Galaxy.

The movie comprises of 5 main characters all having a mission to save the world. Because the movie is plot in the galaxy, there are all kinds of beings that exists.

One of the 5 characters, Groot, voiced by Vin Diesel, is a species called Flora colossus, who has the ability to absorb wood to feed, rebuild himself and to enhance his strength.

In the movie, he played as an important role in protecting his allies as well as being a very good friend to his partner Rocket Raccoon. Their friendship is seen to be so close that Rocket understands what Groot is trying to say when he can only pronounce the three words "I am Groot".

Even with speaking disabilities, Groot has a kind soul. Towards the end of the movie, Groot decided to turn himself into a ball of roots protecting his friends and also allies from a big fire.

This part shows that those who are willing to sacrifice for you are those who you can call "friends".
Groot sacrifices himself to save the other four friends. What I learn from this part of the movie is that, if we really appreciate our friends, we can do all sorts of sacrifices for them without complaining. We will be able to do it willingly as well.

Appreciate your friends. Who knows when will you be in need of a friend now and in the future.
