Actually happiness won't knock on the door

Moving.
When the father and son were sitting in the dining room, watching the family eating happily in the distance. The repaired machine lights up, and it is bright as if it came from heaven. Chris flushed his eyes, shook hands with his boss one by one, then rushed out, rushed to the kindergarten, and picked up his son.
So this part of his life, this small part, is called happiness.

Just as everyone occasionally becomes stupid and meets Mars, it is inevitable for everyone to have a part of their lives called being losers, bankrupted by the tax bureau, kicked out by the landlord, and even family members leave you, and you , Staring at the fisheye, don't know what to do.
Someone will compromise on this, accept the black-and-white blackness that life has given you, be overwhelmed with everything, complain all the time, and even indulge in alcohol or other things for the rest of their lives.
And this person will not do that. He looked up at the sky, muttered to himself why I can't be happy, and desperately rushed towards the distance where the light of happiness seemed to flicker. Naturally, he finally got his wish, flew to the branch and turned into a phoenix, and led his lovely son to live a life where he would no longer worry about rent. He would even own a big house, an unimaginable property, etc.
But he would still think if it didn’t succeed. , What will happen to his life?

Shi Tiesheng has a novel called Mingruoqinxian, as the title of an essay that I failed to do once said: A
blind artist and a disciple are also blind. The old artist told his disciple a secret when he was dying. When the 1000th string is broken, he can open the piano, which contains the secret recipe for rejuvenation. None of the artist’s predecessors can snap 1,000 roots, but the old man just snapped 999 roots in his lifetime, and none of them had the secret recipe. The disciple at that time, in his early twenties, was desperately longing for the light. He took over the piano with the secret recipe and started playing hard all his life.
Finally, when Huafa's head was full, he broke the 1000th string.
He can't wait to open the piano, there is no secret formula in the piano! After calming down, the old blind man understood: Didn’t he get the secret recipe long ago? Because of this secret recipe, he had the courage to survive. He tried hard to say that he was respected, and he learned to love and be loved. So, the old blind man called his disciple, gave him a piano, and repeated the secret of the master of the year, but he turned 1,000 into 1,200.
Listening to the gurgling sound of the little blind man, the old blind man thought: Maybe, he has played 1200 strings continuously throughout his life...

More usually, this is the result. Happiness does not necessarily lie in your hardships and difficulties, but your optimism. Or it is realized after the hard work, you may have toiled all your life, but in the end you find that happiness does not really exist, or it is simply out of reach. But if you give up your pursuit, what is the meaning of life?
It is always necessary to work hard for a certain result. The taste is bitter and no one knows, but the result is never known. In this case, should we give up the pursuit and retreat to the original peace, or give it a go, lower the bet, and take a look at the results this time?
I remember that a few months ago, the feeling of often suffering from gains and losses was often after a psychological struggle, and I came to the conclusion that you will never get happiness by evading pursuit. If you want to get something, the only way is to work hard, and the result is Since it is not within the controllable range, why bother about it?
Nothing is easy, and it is not hard work to ensure that you have something, but this is really the only possible choice and the only important thing. After disappointment and despair, every master understands this principle, so that blank prescription will circulate in one piano after another, and there will be one blind man after another, desperately breaking one. String after string survived the cracks of hope.

So I feel that in the title of the pursuit of happiness, pursuit is the focus. The Chinese translate it as happiness knocking on the door, which is really putting the cart before the horse, because happiness will never knock on your door casually.

PS:
1 The last sentence, nobody who, reminds me of a very tangled story, and the nicknames of those in Class 7 who are very ws.
2 It's the first time to watch a movie played by will smith. This person used to be a comedy?
