A person, if he does not have a dream, loses his soul. The meaning of living is not to live for the sake of living, but the process of striving for dreams.
The other day, I saw the movie "The King of the Circus", which is a movie based on a true story. The most shocking thing about this movie is that Barnum never gives up on his dreams. After Barnum was fired from the company, he was unable to support his family. Seeing his beloved wife and daughter suffering, he decided to start a business on his own.
In order to get a bank loan, he made a fake mortgage certificate and started a circus. In order to attract people's attention, he invited the strange people, or freaks, to perform and started the circus business.
However, although he made money, his circus could not be elegant, and he was still ostracized by high society and even became a laughingstock. What he couldn't bear most was that his daughter studied ballet and was ridiculed as a "peanut" by the children of the rich. Because only the people at the bottom eat peanuts and watch circus.
Barnum finally realized that in such a secular and cruel society, even if you have money, you can't get dignity without the approval of high society. He took the initiative to get to know the upper class, but he still didn't fit in. Later, he introduced a rich second generation to be his shareholder, and in the form of inducement, helped him open a road to high society. He was also invited by the Queen of England to perform at the British Royal Palace. It was at the British Palace that he met the Swedish goddess singer Linde, and it was at that moment that he finally understood that high-society people liked high music.
He mortgaged all his assets and toured the world with Swedish singer Linde. At the beginning of the show, it was very popular. Later, Linde fell in love with Barnum and wanted to be with him all the time, or else break the contract. Barnum still loved his wife and daughter, and he chose family, which left him bankrupt.
Barnum's life has had its ups and downs, his super imagination has allowed him to succeed, and his desires have led him to failure. Finally, Barnum realized the true meaning of life: only by not forgetting the original intention can he become a true "circus king".
A person, in the process of pursuing his dreams, may be able to go far and far, if he forgets his original intention, he will eventually have nothing. Therefore, we must always have a dream in mind and do not forget our original intentions, in order to be beautiful in the end!
