At the end of the obsessive

"October Sky", what appeared on the screen was not the ending song, but the names of the true prototypes of the characters in the play. At that moment, I decided, I want to talk about dreams.
This is a typical inspirational film, based on the autobiographical story of NASA scientist Hommer. It was described that under the background of the successful launch of the world’s first artificial satellite by the Soviet Union, a kid in Meishan Township in the United States who didn’t even understand basic calculus, after watching the launch of the satellite, decided to build a rocket with his friends to recover American Airlines. Too career. The ending of the plot is of course as you might expect. They will inevitably go through nine and eighty-one difficulties, and finally realize their dreams, usher in a bright future, and a brilliant life.
Unbearable plot, but I can still burst into tears.
Perhaps it is because it is telling "dreams" with real stories. And I just have a dream, but I don't have a story to fill it. Other people's attachments can still touch me easily year after year, because I have never had it before. But I'm not so sad, because I'm still young, and fortunately, it's not too late.
I still have time to "attach".
I have asked myself more than once, what will your future look like?
Let's talk about the standard configuration version. This is the future of most people: After graduating from university, with a low-weight diploma, enter a good or bad company, hold a low salary, and then focus on work. After decades, finally one day, after saving enough for the down payment, with a heavy mortgage on his back, I bought a normal Volkswagen, and then I found a partner with similar financial conditions and became a small family. Every day, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, mopping the floor, washing out the garbage, well, there is also anti-wolf, anti-theft and anti-xiaosan. After having a child, I began to worry about his health, his grades, and his future. During the rebellious period, he would talk back to you from time to time, and run away from home. In adolescence, you have to worry about whether he will fall in love early. At the age of 40, you have to be able to withstand the old and the young, and you gradually lose your ability. At the age of 50, you have to withstand the menopause. A little bit later, I will worry about the child’s work, marriage, and offspring, and then to the end, I will worry about the health of myself and my wife. I hope that I will spend a little more time.
Just like before, you still go online every day.
When you see the name of the folder of your son or daughter in the lower corner of the desktop is "XX Band Concert HD", you will be a little surprised. Once you thought you would form a band like Westlife, and you would become a superstar like Eason Chan or Faye Wong. , But after so many years, you don’t have such a shining stage, and no one is waving a glow stick for you.
When you open the news page, you will see a briefing session about a newly emerging company that is opening a new product. Once you thought you would become a man of action like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, but after so many years, You have no ability to influence an era, not even enough to influence a group of people.
Maybe you accidentally glanced at the small car advertisement in the lower right corner, and suddenly found that the famous cars and sports cars that you liked in your childhood had been unknowingly drifted over the years.
Opened the entertainment gossip column, which just reported the news of a certain line actor cheating and divorcing. You laughed out loud and whispered silently: "I knew it", and then inadvertently recalled when you were young, looking forward to finding someone you know each other to have a vigorous love, and then you drank each other, all the way to the white head. Until later, you have an epiphany, in fact, love is very real, marriage is nothing but that.
The headlines of the domestic news are placed in the most prominent position of the webpage. You click on it as usual, and you see the report of the Youth Student Movement, and you see that XX has won the world championship again. You once firmly believed that you would become a pillar of the country, but you can only laugh at yourself and serve the country with nowhere, and your aspirations are hard to get.
Your son ran over at this time and told you that his dream is to "travel the world". You are a little excited because it is exactly the same as your dream. But after so many years, you still don't have a trip that just walks away.
At this time, you are a little confused, and suddenly feel that all these years of hard work for a lifetime, it seems that you have everything, but it seems that you have nothing. You sighed softly, patted your son on the shoulder, turned and walked into the kitchen, saying that you would warm him a glass of milk.
You toss and turn in bed at midnight, feeling that your life is too pale. Lost your dreams on the road, and for a moment you suddenly realized that what you lost is precious enough.
At this point, I think it would be a torture for myself if I continue to make up for it.
I don't want to live like this. I think it's different.
The initial motivation for me to be obsessed with dreams is that I can only live once. There are many ways to live, the most stable and "little fortunate", I can only say, "that's great, but no the good." The
hardest part of clinging to dreams is that we are all too easy to be changed by the world. Life always cunningly throws two bombs again and again, one is called "reality" and the other is called "dream". You choose one to detonate yourself. Too many people have given you suggestions during the selection process, and the whole sky is filled with the noise of society. If you can't calm down and hear the voice from the bottom of your heart, if you are not careful, you will blow your dreams to pieces.
I used to think that on the way to chasing dreams, the most difficult thing is to overcome repeated failures. In fact, the real difficulty is persistence. There will always be a moment when you can't help but follow the crowd, compromise to life, be persuaded by your surroundings, and walk the same monotonous pace as everyone else, forgetting the feeling of running and chasing.
Chasing dreams requires the ability to endure humiliation.
"If you can't bear the humiliation, you have no time, you have no space, and no space to move into the future. If you want to move into the future and become stronger and more prosperous in the end, you must do well to leave enough time and space for yourself , When it is our own life to strive for a great goal, you must eliminate all trivial disturbances in your life." The person who said this is Yu Minhong.
We must leave a confined space so that our dreams will not be disturbed. At every moment in life, you must leave a lonely moment, look around no one, only yourself, and then see your dreams clearly.
Dreams will not run away, it will always be you who will run away.
In North Island’s "Visitor from Poland", there is a passage: "At that time we had dreams, about literature, about love, about traveling across the world. Now we drink late at night, when the glasses meet, it is the sound of broken dreams."
That broken voice, I hope I will never hear it in my entire life.
My dream at this stage is to broaden my own horizons and minds. It is actually quite abstract, to put it more concretely, because I want to read more books, visit more corners of the world, and experience more. Feel the different breath and temperature of each person or thing, and then load the warmth and light gained along the way in your heart, so that you can become more calm, open-minded, and stronger. Perhaps this is an upgraded version of "Around the World", because I don't want to stop at the scenery, I greedily want to arm the soul.
In fact, there is no longer any future in Japan, and I am about to start preparing. The most stupid thing in the world is to be ambitious but waste time. Life is not long, sometimes you have not waited for you to live thoroughly, youth is hard to find, and the dusk is here, only a sigh is left. Time is hard to spare, time is not enough, and the present is not well grasped, and the future is bound to be nothingness.
May I keep my heart clinging to dreams, not being abducted by "easy", and not being scared of crying by "difficulties".
Because if the heart has no place to live, it will always be wandering wherever it goes.
