At least, Phillips has been working hard. As he said: If life without meaning, without drive, without focus, without goals or dreams, isn't life worth living? All are death, although we may be dead on the way to realize our dreams, although we may be hindered by various means, such as Lightning.
But if the ending is death, does life have meaning? Do dreams still have meaning? Of course there is. Phillips said: "What I regretted the most was that I lived everyday waiting for my life to begin". Many times, in the process of working hard for our dreams, on the road to achieve our goals, our eyes only focus on the end. That goal ignores the joy and happiness of the process of working hard for it. We always feel that this is not what I want right now. Once I achieve that goal, Everything will be fine. When we take the high school entrance examination, when the college entrance examination, when we graduate, many times we are thinking: the moment is painful or unsatisfactory. If we work hard to achieve our goals and realize our dreams, we will be happy and happy. As everyone knows, the happiest thing is the hard work and growth we put in for the realization of our dreams. Although Philips failed to enter Northwestern University in the end, although it failed to win the Nobel Peace Prize in the end, although it failed to change the world in the end. But when he went out holding his own magazine, he said: It was the first time in his life that he truly felt happy. I think we should all realize: I had been so busy dwelling in my own self-pity. I had forgotten what I actually accomplished.
