What are you fighting for?

What are you fighting for? After
watching "Alien Battlefield", this question has been lingering in my mind. To be honest, this movie is really unexpected. I thought it was a sci-fi movie, similar to a movie like Star Wars. I never expected that the whole story is filled with a strong humanistic atmosphere, and the gothic aristocratic atmosphere is mixed with primitive The wild teases your passions and dreams like a drug. The typical American personal heroism is brought into full play in the film, making the audience hooked, and the feeling of being worshipped by the people on Mars is very satisfying. The planetary self-esteem of the people of the earth is swept away, and the inferiority and humiliation faced by alien species is swept away. If you want to come, it will make people's pores enlarged and blood spurted, and the compact plot design and deep strategic wisdom are also applauded. In addition, there are sexy clothing designs, which make people seem to return to the perfect era of Greece and Rome. The Roman heavy armor, scarlet cloak, and the perfect strength and curves of the gods are fascinating!
In addition to these external packaging and atmosphere design, the most fascinating thing is the question "What are you fighting for?" I remember Le Jia said in the If You Are the One comment, to the effect that even if two people are doing the same thing, produce the same effect, but should be evaluated differently because of different motives. From this point of view, if actions and results are appearances, then motivation should be the essence behind them. I can't help but think of a little story, saying that three people are laying bricks on the construction site, one is just laying bricks, one is thinking about the whole building, and the third is thinking about how to become a builder. After a few years, the three of them Circumstances show different results because of what is in the mind. In the interpretation of this story, everyone tends to focus on the importance of the goal. But in my opinion, this should reflect a difference in motivation, and it is also the belief in fighting for it that is reflected in "Alien Battlefield"!
Looking back, what is the purpose of human life, and what is the purpose of working hard? Some people say that it is for the sake of making money, but how much money should be made, and what to do with the money after it is earned, this is a problem, and it is also an increasingly serious social problem. Drag racing, drug addiction, night games, private clubs, all kinds of high-sensory sports and entertainment projects have been developed by everyone, and all those who participated are rich people. There is a basic logic in this. When you are hungry, everything is delicious, and when you are full, honey is not sweet. Similarly, with more and more money, conventional material stimuli can no longer meet your needs, so you will naturally find some Let's play with something powerful, so I staged scenes that made all living beings laugh and cry. Thinking from another angle, would it be better to replace this growing material need with spiritual needs, and would the society be more harmonious? It is evident from the status of Bill Gates, Buffett and other great people. If we have money, we will play charity and improve our spiritual level. And this spiritual realm is also the belief and the motivation to fight for it.
It's the same question that Stephen Covey first mentioned in "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People." Beliefs, values, or purpose are all words that mean the same thing. Especially in this era when hundreds of flowers are blooming and all things are contending, should we always look back and think about this problem? The pace is too fast, and the soul is really unable to keep up. Sometimes after a busy few months, when I look back, I don't know what I did, and I forgot why I did these things. It's really helpless to think about it.
