"If you have a dream, you must protect it."
This sentence comes from the movie " when happiness comes knocking on the door ", which may be the motto of many people. There are always unsatisfactory things in life, and when you are in trouble, what supports you to get out of the trouble and move forward without fear of hardship?
The movie "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" tells us how people in adversity can regain hope in the difficult quagmire.
The film is adapted from the autobiographical novel of the same name published by Chris Gardner, a black American investment expert. The movie tells the story: Chris, played by Will Smith , lost his job. When he was about to go bankrupt, his wife left him because he could not bear the poverty of life. In the distressed life of relying on their own son, the father and son even lost their fixed residence for a time. Chris had no choice but to take his children to and fro in subways, public restrooms, churches, shelters and other places.
However, Chris has always adhered to his yearning for a happy life and pursued his dreams bravely and persistently with firm beliefs. Eventually they succeeded in becoming well-known financial investors, and they also lived a happy life.
The true meaning of happiness
The film tells us what happiness is. Each of us has different happiness. So what exactly is happiness for us?
Happiness is not so much an objective fact as it is a subjective emotion. It is a beautiful feeling that everyone desires to have, but if we just stay on the desire for happiness, we may never really have it.
If you don't give, you won't gain. Only when you have aspirations and put your own efforts for it, happiness will come.
Chris in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" is like this,Divorced, unemployed, and even wandering with his son...These have not brought him down, he has always believed: everything will be ok.
For the happiness of himself and his son, he is always running .
Moreover, the switch of happiness can only be held in one's own hands. Maybe you grew up in a poor family, or maybe you regret that you can't make it through with your parents. But if we are immersed in our own pain for a long time, the pain we feel will often be far more than the pain. Chris is a humble, humorous and intelligent man. He is always decent and human, never complaining about others, but accepting reality and fighting unremittingly.
Because of this, Chris did not accomplish nothing as his wife hated. Despite such a harsh living environment, Chris still lived what he wanted and became a well-known financial investor.
Coincidentally, they all say that pursuing dreams is destined to be lonely. That's right, the pursuit of our dreams requires us to break the boat, and we need to move forward without hesitation. However, we are not alone on the road of pursuing dreams. Although we are not on the same track, we will not lack people who dream together on the way.
Embedding the first case, pour into dreaming feelings
In recent years, "" Kung Fu Panda "Hua Mulan" is a hot spot again. Foreign movies frequently show traditional Chinese culture on the screen. We can't help but look back more than half a century ago, there was such an existence, it is a leader in the Chinese art world, it integrates the treasures of national culture and art, and represents the pinnacle of the animation industry in China and even Asia at that time. It is Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio .
In the eyes of many people, it is more like people’s nostalgic sustenance. In addition to humorous or emotional stories, people have also discovered that Shanghai fine art films are actually infused with the dreams and efforts of those artists.
Due to technical limitations in the early years, animation production requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and seemingly simple actions often require a lot of paintings to link and express. An animation of about ten minutes may require 7,000 to 10,000 drawings. "Calabash Baby" is a cut out of all the paintings. The preliminary work can be described as a lot of work, not only to conceive the core and content of the animation, but also to conceive the characters of the animation, and to draw the actions, expressions and expressions of each animation. Each animation can not be successfully completed in a day or two to achieve a lifelike effect.
In the "Beautiful Film Studio", a mirror is placed on the workbench of an animator, in order to allow animators to better express their character and pursue reality. Minutes such as blinking, tongue shaking and other details. Every expression, every detail, is polished by the team day and night, and every detail is refined. For them, what they are doing is not just a simple animation, but The children they take care of day and night are the hard work they make day and night. It takes one week to study just the shape of a mouth, let alone complete an entire cartoon.
Such a arduous production process and environment did not make them retreat. For them, the animated characters under them are their children, because they are facing difficulties and because they are tireless The pursuit of their dreams, they have achieved the "Beautiful Film Studio", and also achieved their own.
If you want to ask them if they are tired? I think their answer must be "not tired" because they are pursuing their own happiness. For animators, their lively characters are their happiness.
They are not only animators, but also dream makers . They are willing to explore the vast and beautiful world of imagination, and they are close to the origin of life, and they do everything down to earth to create ideal works of art. This is their way to pursue happiness, and this is their way to happiness.
Basketball can bring me everything
For the post-90s,Kobe is no stranger, and it can even be said that Kobe's peak period accompanied their entire youth. Kobe's deep love for basketball, technical excellence, never giving up on challenges, and his Mamba spirit have inspired countless basketball enthusiasts to march forward bravely.
Kobe Bryant was born in Philadelphia, USA His father Joe Bryant is quite talented NBA player, mother is also a loyal fan. In such a growing environment, Kobe Bryant has sprouted a love for basketball very early, showing a very high talent. The father discovered Kobe's talent and brought his son to the training ground with him during training. Kobe has been exposed to formal basketball training since he was a child and found more fun in basketball. Speaking of his father’s influence, Kobe said: “The most valuable thing my father taught me is his love for basketball and his love for fans. He told me not to let pressure and people’s expectations of you ruin yourself from basketball. The fun to experience." In Kobe's view, basketball is not only a sport, but also an art. It is the process of finding happiness. This has also become the starting point for his life as a basketball career.
There is a saying in the United States, "If you want to be a professional player, then you have to find the right father and mother." Kobe is fortunate, the family environment gives him an excellent room for growth. From the beginning of learning to walk, Kobe Bryant showed his love for basketball and established his ambition to play the NBA when he grew up. He often watched his father play games on TV and seriously imitated every movement of his father. For Kobe, basketball is happy. Playing basketball is the road to happiness.
Once, the coach of the school basketball team found Kobe playing alone on the basketball court. His face was focused and sweaty. Kobe told him shyly that he was fighting a "shadow enemy". The coach was impressed by the boy's deep love for basketball. At the same time, he realized that Kobe has an innate ability to make his opponents daunting. Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. It is precisely because Kobe has always worked hard to pursue his happiness in basketball. He was excavated and cultivated by the coach and became a rising star on the court, taking the first step towards a superstar.
Lin Yutang once said: "Some people say that everyone's life is similar, but the hopes and dreams dotted in life make it different." Having a dream that you love, and being able to fight for it, is a lifelong blessing. Kobe became acquainted with basketball when he was young. He took his dreams as his life's career and found happiness and value from it. This is an important reason why he surpasses others and achieves himself. Also everyone needs the path to happiness. This is the source of our struggle, the reason for our persistence, and a shining star in ordinary life.
On January 27, 2020, Kobe died in an air crash. He used his life to create a legend in the game, and he is happy. I think for him, he has no regrets in the pursuit of happiness.
Happiness is a positive motivation in life. People who continue to run for happiness are shining. We can even say that the pursuit of happiness itself is a kind of happiness.
A very important sign of a mature person is not to ask too much from outside, but to create something for oneself. Maybe someone once shut the door of happiness before us. But we are the only one who can open it again, and even keep it open forever.
If you just sit on the sofa and wait for happiness to knock on the door every day, and wait for the god of happiness to patronize yourself, that would be tantamount to idiotic dreams. There will be no pie in the sky, no charity without reason, and no free lunch. Every step in our life needs to be down-to-earth, and every door to happiness in life must be our own. Go open. Sometimes, the happiness we feel is not just the happiness of happiness itself, but we who are pursuing tirelessly on the road to happiness, because the pursuit itself is a kind of happiness.
