Some movies grow up with a person, and the characters in the movie will affect the person's life. Even though I didn't watch it a few times when I was a kid, the details of the movie are not well remembered. But the character of Rudy has always been imprinted in my mind. Even today, I still cry after watching this movie.
As a child, Rudy had a football dream. When playing with a group of big kids, even if he was small, he had to fight to play quarterback. Even remember every word the announcer said. The dream of playing for Notre Dame has taken root in his heart since he was a child. But little Rudy's family is not very rich. His father works in a local steel factory, and there are many brothers and sisters at home. Little Rudy's figure is not too prominent. Like most people, Rudy is a child of an ordinary family, without any qualifications to be called good.
However, in life you have to pay a lot for what you really want, and this road is destined to be difficult. The first thing Rudy has to overcome is the evaluation of others. Even his father doesn't believe his son can play the University of Notre Dame football team, let alone his brother at home. It has always been half ridicule and half ridicule to Rudy. But this road is not lonely, only when Rudy is with good friends dares to talk about his football dream. If you've had someone by your side along the way to chase your dreams, you'd really be grateful. However, the road to his dream is tortuous, and his good friends cannot accompany him all the time. In high school, even his teachers treated him coldly. After graduation, he joined the factory where his father worked like his brother.
Behind every little luck is great courage, and courage is so magical sometimes. You dare to confess without knowing the confidence that comes from there, and suddenly you dare to go all out to chase your dreams. You put aside deliberation, put aside the evaluation of others, put aside the familiar environment of life. You are desperate to start a new project in pursuit of your dream, even if you don't know if it will work out. The thing that allows you to endure that inexplicable uncertainty for a long time is called "hope". Hope is the most beautiful thing in the world. Hope is your belief that today's efforts will make tomorrow better. Having dreams is what makes life tolerable..
Rudy started saving for her dreams and started planning her way to Notre Dame one step at a time. Even if his father still thinks that Notre Dame is for rich kids, Rudy is stupid to pursue his dreams, why can't he work in a steel mill like his brothers and get a stable salary. Maybe in the eyes of others this worldly success is the perfect life, but only you know in your heart that it is not what you want. You would say to the priest like Rudy: "And ever since I was a kid everyone said it couldn't be done. My whole life people have been telling me what I could do and couldn't do. I have always listened to them, believed in what they said. I don't waht to do that anymore".
No one knows what adventures will come from chasing dreams, but every adventure is a miracle. These miracles will accompany you in the pursuit of your dreams, sometimes as an encouragement, sometimes as a rainy rescue from friends, sometimes as help from teammates and others. But before these, you must have a belief in your heart that I believe that my efforts will eventually pay off, even if this reward requires long-term patience and dedication. Although it was only 27 seconds in the end, it was nothing for a game. But those 27 seconds meant a lot to Rudy. For the 27 seconds on the court, Rudy finally gained a college diploma, the recognition of his family, a group of like-minded friends, and more importantly, a better self and another life. It also gave a heavy blow to those who used to dislike him and slander him. We pray in our time, God answers in his time. Maybe when you look back at this time in your twilight years, you will thank yourself when you were young, thank yourself for playing like this, thank yourself for your tenacity and not giving up, and make yourself a better person people.
Sometimes I really don't know what I'm still insisting on for my dream, and even the dream doesn't even have a shadow. But the dream is the faint flame that lives in your heart. When you are frustrated, the flame may move with the wind but never go out. It is like an anchor nailed to the horizon. When you do not know the specific direction in the vast fog, you must know that the anchor is going in this direction. And in this process, you begin to learn self-discipline and start to meet different people. You change your decadence and move forward bravely towards that goal. You don't know where the courage and endurance come from, you don't care what other people say, you just listen to your heart, you start to love yourself, and you pass that belief on to those around you. If you have a dream, go after it. Dreams cannot wait.
