"Walking in the Clouds" tells the story of Philip Patt, who has had a talent for acrobatic performances since he was a child, and learned by chance that the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York are about to be completed. Since then, Philip has the idea of walking a tightrope between these two skyscrapers. However, this crazy behavior was met with a series of doubts and misunderstandings, but this did not break Philip's firm belief. Finally, in the clouds at the 110th floor and 412 meters, Philip started his tightrope walk.
Each of us has dreams when we are young. When people ask yes, the most likely answers are scientists, doctors, and teachers. But there are also some people whose dreams when they were children were not the ones that everyone often heard about. For example, San Mao's dream was to be a scavenger who could find hundreds of treasures. Saying it will inevitably be ridiculed, but the innocence of childhood is also a true reflection of yourself. Later, although Sanmao did not really become a scavenger, he lived freely according to his own ideas.
Some of the strange dreams that others saw when they were young may be their most real thoughts, but now, when they ask about their ideals in life, many people scratch their heads and think hard only to realize that the dreams of their youth have long been scattered with the fragments of life. End of the World.
Are you still holding on to your original dream?
When Philip Pat told his father he was going to walk a tightrope and become an artist, his father thought he was crazy and kicked him out of the house, saying he didn't have a son who performed in an acrobatic troupe. Philip did not give up, but continued to insist on his dream, and finally completed his peak art at the Petronas Twin Towers. Dreams that were once mocked become brilliant at this moment.
British philosopher Thomas Brown said: When you laugh at other people's flaws, you don't know that these flaws are also laughing at yourself in you. In fact, if we pay attention, we will find that those who like to laugh at others often have no achievements in their lives; while those who are ridiculed often bloom dazzling flowers of life in the quagmire of pain with tenacious vitality.
So if your dreams have ever been laughed at, think of Harold Frye in "A Pilgrimage Alone". Because his friend more than 20 years ago was terminally ill, he decided to leave the UK without his phone or luggage. The south trekked to the northernmost part of the UK to visit friends, just to give them hope of survival. These crazy actions to others were just an initial idea for Harold, and then he kept insisting on it.
In fact, think about it carefully, haven't all the love letters written by "madmen" to their dreams finally come true?
