The most inspiring movie

Let me start my talk with a simple question. Are you happy? Yes? No? What is the definition of happiness? To have fine meals and sleep in big house every day? Or to be with those who love you and you love? Some people would go in for the substance enjoyment; however, others would focus on their love and faith of lives. Chris Gardner is belonged to the later type, and his story was written in this movie “The pursuit of happiness.”
This movie was based on the true story of Chris Gardner, a single father struggling to make ends meet, turning into homeless while raising his toddler son, and struggling to build a future for themselves. In the movie, even though Chris Gardner was despised by his supervisor, his determination still paid off when he landed an unpaid internship in a brutally competitive stockbroker—training program. Actually, in his early age, he developed black pride. He believed that one day the black race can be as successful as the white race. Therefore, it became the source of his power to face every difficulty, and every hardship he encountered.
Moreover, he owed his achievements to the “spiritual genetics” handed down to him by his mother. His mother encouraged him to believe in himself and sowed the seeds of self-reliance in him. Besides, not only his mother but his son is the main source of his support. In order to keep his beloved son from suffering the same misery and misfortune he had in his life, he used his willpower and faith to fight against every difficult. He told his son that don’t ever let somebody tell you that you can’t do something. If you got a dream, you need to protect it. It was the most important part of the movie which really inspires me a lot when I watch it. For it reminded me of my personal experience.
I got a dream when I was young; however, I still failed to protect it. It is a small dream which about my family, about my dear parents and about my love and faith for them. My parents divorced when I was a senior high school student. Before they separated from each other, they often got quarrel and even fought against each other. I felt scared and did not have courage to tell anyone my fear. Whenever they quarreled, my mother always got hurt. I could see that the scars were not only on her body but deep in her heart. Eventually, one day. I plucked up my courage and told my grandparents what happened in my family. My dream was shattered. I felt sad but relieved, and happy! Afterwards, I moved to my grandparents’ house. Under my grandparents concerns and love, I gradually grew out of my sadness and found my happiness again. I felt so happy to be with those who love me and I love. Now, I have told you my definition of happiness, it’s as same as Chris Gardner’s. What is yours? Do you know how to put the part of “Happiness” in your life? What is your attitude toward the pursuit of happiness? In the United States Declaration Independence, Thomas Jefferson said that everyone has the right to pursue happiness, and the part about our right to life liberty. I finally know it after I went through all the hardships in my life. Just like the movie title, happy ness, I need to put the happy attitude in my pursuit of happiness and stick to the end until the time when I catch it. And maybe the road to the happiness is not easy; I know happiness will one day knock on my door.
