dream of desire

In an afternoon when my consciousness was chaotic due to sleep transition, I watched this film that I had always wanted to watch. When I watched it, I felt that this film was also very chaotic. The whole film had a depressing and maddening tone, just like in a dream. Maybe Jordan has been dreaming in it all the time. In the dream of desires surrounded by money, cars, beauty, mansions, and drugs, he got everything a man wants, everything a man defines as success, but in the film he is about to be killed. Catch said to Downey, "It's all so boring." This is the truth of the world, unchecked overindulgence will only make everything messy, over-pursuit of money, over-indulgence of sexual desire, everything just exists In the fantasy of alcohol and drugs, everything after waking up is so empty and boring, day after day. This intoxicated life is a symbol of all human desires.
So what is the meaning of life?
I am always confused lately.
I'd rather have a career that loves interesting, almost enough money, a suitable partner who loves each other, a friend who can talk deeply in two or two, and a hobby that adds a little interest to life.
Life is alive, desires have no end, never make comparisons, people's gains and losses are actually balanced, there is always an invisible loneliness in the sight of the bright, behind the scenery there are also invisible struggles, live your own life well, don't give up thinking, don't give up. Giving up self-examination, living in moderation, not giving up occasional sensibility and poetry, that's enough.

The Wolf of Wall Street quotes

  • Jordan Belfort: It was a madhouse, a greed fest, with equal parts cocaine, testosterone, and body fluids. It got so bad, I had to declare the office a fuck-free zone between the hours of 9 and 7.

  • Jordan Belfort: Actually, the madness started on our very first day, when one of our brokers, Ben Jenner, christened the elevator by getting a blow job from the sales assistant. Her name was Pam and to her credit, she did have this amazing technique with this wild twisting jerk motion. About a month later, Donnie and I decided to double team her on a Saturday afternoon while our wives were out shopping for Christmas presents. Eventually Ben married her, which was pretty amazing, considering she blew every single guy in the office. Well, he got depressed and killed himself about three years later.
