You'd probably know now what am I going to talk about, and yesss its a movie review! you see, when it comes to movies I get very picky to that point that I can just start criticizing and never actually stopping! There are two types of movies -well at least in my dictionary- there are movies that are solely for entertainment, and movies which usually have some hidden lessons for us to learn from, and THAT ladies and gentleman, what I get attracted to, a lot!
"Pursuit of Happyness". . . well it IS the movie to watch! I have watched it over and over again, and each single time, it gets me, it is such a Beautiful movie! The best part of it, is that it is based on a true story, where a fairly unlucky man, struggles in life, in order to be happy, to be satisfied with himself, to stand out in everything, and after all to afford a comfortable life for his son and him.
I learnt a lot from this movie, because it showed that everything in our lives is based on Happiness, its the core of everything. If you still don't believe me, lets apply an example based on questions, and by the end of it you'll see exactly what I'm trying to point out here:
Q: Why are you studying soo hard in your university, and aiming for high grades?
A: So that I can have some self respect, and maybe a really good job.
Q: Why do you need a good job?
A: So that I'd have enough money.
Q: Why do you need the money?
A: To afford a good a house and a car maybe.
Q: Why do you need the house and the car?
A: So that i can live comfortably, and satisfied with my-self.
Q: Why do you need that?
A: Because when i reach self-satisfaction, I get over-whelmed with happiness.
Now that is something right there!! I don't mean though that money can buy happiness, but it does bring self-satisfaction, and with that a person can feel happy in a way or other.
Each person has to "pursuit" happiness in his/her own way, some people can be happy while reading a book and eating some chocolate, other people are happy when they are going on a cruise in the pacific, its just a matter of who likes what, and who enjoys what. What matters really is to be happy and fulfilled in oneself.
I guess that's too much rambling for now, but I'll try really hard to keep up with this thing, because after all its the only place where i can truly express myself -my opinions -my thoughts..
Peace out people!
