Pursuit of Happiness Reflection

I really enjoyed this movie because, the storyline was interesting and because of the fact that it was based on a true story it made me able t0 connect to the story more.

The strongest emotion that I felt when watching the film was that it was very moving. It was very heartbreaking to see the struggles Chris and Christopher had to go through after Linda left them. In the end, they overcame the difficulty and they were able to live a happy life.

The three lessons I learned in this movie were don’t give up, money doesn’t always equal happiness, and life will sometimes be tough. Chris didn’t even have enough money to pay his taxes but that didn’t stop him from trying. He always had hope and he knew there is always hope if you never quit. Even in the state when Chris didn’t have any money, he and Christopher was able to be happy from time to time. At first of the movie, Chris had a house, a car, and his wife. But when life turned against him, he lost everything except for his son, and he had to move in a homeless shelter or at worst sleep in the subway. However, that didn’t stop him. He had a dream and went after it which made it possible to recover from his losses.

Through these lessons, I think I can implement them into my life and I will rewatch this movie in the future when I have some troubles in my life.
