The pursuit of happiness“You got a dream,you got to protect it.” After watching the pursuit of happiness,I was inspired deeply by this sentence.No matter how difficult and distressed the life is,no matter how haggard and tired you are,don’t be despaired!Everything will be better if you try and work hard.Just like Chris Gardner,a father whose life is filled with troubles,you occasionally hear a bit of a tremble in his voice and he looks very old and tired.Due to the poor life,his wife left him and their child.In the film you can see many scenes that Chris Gardner and his son move from apartment to motel room to homeless shelter,even live in the toilet of railway station.Chris lives a poor and hopeless life.But he didn’t give in.Everyday he runs from home to kindergarten,run from kindergarten to doctors’ office,run from offices to interviews.Everyday he is running.Everyday he is pursuing happiness.Everyday he is overcoming poverty and homelessness to become a successful stockbroker.In spite of the fact that he undergoes too many despair and sad,he never give up his dream.This film let me remind of my own experience.Since I enter into the university,it has been two months.I always feel frustrated and self-abased and I always feel that I am inferior to others.For examples,when I answer the teacher’s questions,I always feel nervous and think that my answer is wrong.And any other classmates always answer the questions correctly.When we have a quiz for the former class,I always have a not very good mark.I am a English major,but I find that I am not very like English.So I always think I haven’t the talent for learning language.Why?Why am I so upset?Why am I so unconfident?Why can’t I work hard a bit?Why can’t I hold on?Why and why?Through my deep thinking,the answer is:1.I never try hard.2.I never work hard.3.I never insist on learning.4.Last but not least,I never pursue my dream!Do you remember these sentences?“Don’t ever let someone tell you,you can’t do something.Not even me.” Yes,not even myself.Don’t doubt yourself.Trust that you can.“You want something?Go get it.Period.” Yes,If you want be successful,do it bravely.The film’s English name is the pursuit of happiness.But the translator translate it into Chinese is 当幸福敲门时,I can’t understand why.I think,pursuit means running after the dream and happiness,not means waiting happiness coming.You must chase your dream activity.In addition,the actor’s success depends on his own efforts.As the actor said:“It was right then that I started thinking about Thomas Jefferson,the Declaration of Independence,and the part about our right to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.And I remember thinking:How did he know to put the "pursuit" part in there?That maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue.And maybe we can actually never have it...no matter what.How did he know that?”Happiness and dream are something that we can only pursue.Go for it.
