“Worrying about things that are out of our control is the only way we get in trouble right now. ”（擔心那些我們無法掌控的事，是現在唯一會使我們陷入困境的原因。）
在遭遇困境時，我們常被恐懼蒙蔽雙眼，過度糾結於未來與未知。然而，面對逆境唯一的解方即是專注當下，當我們把此刻的每一步路走穩，未來將逐漸明朗。
When facing adversity, we are often blinded by fear and entangled in the uncertainty of the future. However, the only solution in the face of adversity is to focus on the present moment. When we take each step in this moment steadily, the future will gradually become clear.

“The best thing for us to do is to prepare ourselves so it won’t be a surprise. ”（我們只能做好心理準備，當事情發生時才不會感到措手不及。）
逝去是生命的必然，失去亦然。唯有珍惜每個片刻、做好心理準備，才能在摯愛離去時，不被襲來的悲痛擊垮。
Passing is an inevitable part of life, and loss as well. Only by cherishing every moment and being mentally prepared can we withstand the grief that comes when our loved ones depart.

“What feels like hell right now is a gift later. ”（此刻的磨難將成為日後的恩典。）
因為有淪落於監獄的經歷，Annalise才有機會為獄中弱勢族群發聲，並將案子一路上訴至最高法院，實現自己的夢想。「塞翁失馬，焉知非福」，即使此刻的處境再艱難，只要懷有希望、努力克服，相信在不久的將來一切都會否極泰來。
Because of the experience of being incarcerated, Annalise had the opportunity to advocate for marginalized groups within the prison and to appeal her cases all the way to the Supreme Court, fulfilling her dreams. Sometimes misfortune is a blessing in disguise. Even in the most challenging circumstances, as long as we hold onto hope and strive to overcome it, I believe that in the not-too-distant future, everything will turn for the better.

最後，想跟大家分享整部影集我最愛的一幕。Oliver在婚禮上對Connor獻唱，後製將謀殺現場剪接在一起，用最深情的歌聲，串連起最悲痛的畫面，卻意外地如此和諧，就像Oliver將支離破碎的Connor一片片拼起般，宣示著兩人至死不渝的愛情。另外，不僅是音樂與影像完美交織，就連歌詞意境都非常貼切。歌曲出自John Legend的All of me，副歌中提到“Love your curves and all your edges/ All your perfect imperfections ”（我會愛你的一切，連同那些完美的缺陷 ）。
Last but not least, I’d like to share my favorite scene from the entire series with you. During the wedding, Oliver sings a song for Connor; the post-production seamlessly intercuts scenes from the murder with the most heartfelt song. Surprisingly, it all harmonizes so beautifully, just like how Oliver pieces together the broken Connor, declaring their unwavering love. Not only is the music and imagery perfectly intertwined, but even the lyric is remarkably fitting. The song is John Legend’s “All of Me,” and in the chorus, it mentions, “Love your curves and all your edges, all your perfect imperfections.”
