La Vida Que Te Espera Plot Summary In A Sentence:
After a man attacks and imprisons his neighbor’s daughter, the man is murdered; Police investigate the murder, the daughter falls in love with the man’s estranged son, and each person tries to figure who was the murderer and who should they trust.
The Morals of the Story:
If you treat women like cattle, they will not enjoy your company and they may turn and leave you.
To the degree you order women around like cattle, your chances of making mistakes increases.
If you beat your children like you beat your livestock, they will likely leave you.
A cow goes where it wants to go.
If you are sick, go to a doctor.
Some people die because they don’t make the right decisions, and that leads them to an early death. We should consider forgiving them for that.
Sometimes we would rather cry than talk.
You will be defined by the things you choose to require yourself to do every day.
If a person (or a cow) won’t give you what you want, consider playing music for them or giving them the art they want, and watch how that improves their mood and productivity. (Val and her cow Vanessa)
There often is something in your family’s history that you don’t know anything about that would redefine your interpretations and understandings of everything you think you know.
What goes unsaid gets undone.
Humorous Highlights:
See all the “cow” morals listed above.
When dating the son of the man who beat you, tied you up, and put a cow collar on you (after that same man has been murdered), you might want to wait having sex with the son in the hay on your first date.
Clichés and Assumptions The Story Challenged:
People are as stupid as you think.
Your intuition and the evidence you know will lead you to determine the truth accurately most of the time.
