Have you ever been poor?

In fact, the plot is nothing unusual. A lower class of working people finally succeeded through their own efforts.
It is nothing more than his bottom line is lower than ours.
Why is this happening? It's not because he has a son that he becomes "Tekken Man".
How low a person's bottom line is depends entirely on how poor he is.

Have you ever been poor?

When I was the poorest, all the money added up to less than 100 yuan. Of course, I am not going to starve to death. I live in a school dormitory, and I can reach out to my parents if necessary. It is nothing more than a deduction in personal life.
There was a humiliation at the time. Having dinner with the BF at that time, he left the table and left. I couldn't pay for the meal, so I swallowed and begged him to come back.
This matter has not been mentioned for a long time. Seeing the movie today, I remembered it again and couldn't help crying.
Since then, I no longer make the mistake of not relying on others for my own life. Otherwise, you will become a person with no bottom line.

Of course, sometimes the humiliation is for a better life in the future. I'm afraid that some humiliation will only lower my bottom line.

How poor you were, how low your bottom line will be.

    Full of Hollywood tackiness. All the losers, the fallen, and all the people at the bottom can get a kind of illusory and superficial spiritual comfort in it. But please be sober, you may not have a shrewd mathematical mind, may not be good at words, you may be useless, can you still succeed? This Hollywood-style heroism actually uses a coincidental particularity to blind the universality of life, thereby achieving a kind of pseudo-humanity.

    A little disappointed... I feel that I am inspiring for the sake of inspiration... If it weren't for the director and actor's skills, it would have been reduced to a clichéd inspirational movie...

The Pursuit of Happyness quotes

  • Christopher Gardner: [narrating, at a payphone, raining, after learning Linda is taking Christopher away from him] It was right then that I started thinking about Thomas Jefferson on the Declaration of Independence and the part about our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. And I remember thinking how did he know to put the pursuit part in there? That maybe happiness is something that we can only pursue and maybe we can actually never have it. No matter what. How did he know that?
