The movie that inspires me the most - The Pursuit of Happyness
The story of this film starts from the place where the man of the family, Chris Garden, can no longer sell the device that he got a license to sell some time ago, and for this reason, he faces many problems in his life. He did not separate his son from himself, so with the agreement of his wife, Chris's son, Christopher, he stays with his father and goes to war with hardships of life alongside his father.
The movies shows the difficult life of Americans during the 80s which he US economy ran into a budget deficit, and many people in San Francisco became unemployed and homeless, with Chris and his son among them. And they eventually migrated to New York. According to Chris, his wife is a weak person. He says the same thing to his wife, but this is while Chris's wife, Linda, easily takes over all her responsibilities and separates from Chris.
There is a huge difference between Chris and his wife, Chris is a very bold, good-natured, brave, personable man and, most importantly, has a high IQ. While Linda was scaping from difficulties of life by hiding behind her cigarettes' smoke and scaping from her responsibilities, Chris never used cigarettes or alcohol to escape from his problems, he was always been sober and facing all the issues that came into his life, even when disappointment was dominating his life he was smiling.
One of the amazing things about the Chris's character is when he was frustrated looking for customers to sell his scanners but he couldn't find any meanwhile when he saw the luxurious car of one of the employees of the stock broker, he was not jealous for a moment in his eyes or in his words, and he said in his own beautiful tone:
Excuse me, sir, I have two questions, what is your job and how did you get here?
And while he was smiling, he was looking at the man. he was not upset about other people's progress. He was happy because he could take his own example from him and this is what we should adopt in our lives.
Although Chris was struggling with problems, He was always careful about his son, to educate him the right way.
Chris was a man who saw the little things in life well, he did not run away from problems or find a justification for running away and he never tried to delay solving his own problems, so he fought directly and face to face with the problems and never stopped fighting and never got tired.
So we can see him as an example of a man drowned in catastrophes of life but never stopping to progress and move on. He shows that god never comes to help you if you sit on the pity party and continue whining and crying about your loses, But he comes to help for those people who never give up and always grinding to make opportunities for themselves in life. We should always remember that at the height of frustration is a lot of hope. So if you fail once or twice in life do not drop the towel, do not step back and keep coming back until you make it.
The film was full of interesting points for life that can not be brought in this post from this blog, but I suggest you if you have not seen this film, be sure to watch like me. Thanks for reading.
