happiness 高三作文120

What is happiness? Once I watched a movie named The Pursuit of Happiness, I got a deeper understanding of it. The reason why I like it so much is that from the movie I get what I should seek for my whole life, that is, to get happiness, we must develop our potential, work hard, be determined, and the most important of all, be brave to face whatever difficulties we may meet with.
What many people pursue is to live an ordinary life, safe and happy, just like the actor Chris Gardner in the movie. However, accidents may happen anytime. When his wife left Chris Gardner because of the hard life, he was very upset but didn’t give up. Instead, he grasped the chance to first become an internship of the stock brokerage firm because of his gift in math, though the six months’ training might be a waste of time for his later life if he couldn’t get the job. During the six months, he and his little son just had a very hard life, without money to hire a place to sleep, let alone delicious food. Faced with one after another difficulty, he really once thought of surrendering to destiny, and he began to believe that we cannot get happiness but to pursue it. Nevertheless, he persevered, tried his best to phone as many people as possible, and was determined to become a stockbroker. Finally, he made it.
To a certain extend, this story inspires me strongly, which encourages me to think deeply on what we can do and should do to help tap into our strengths so as to extricate ourselves from the difficult situation during tough times. Since we’ve known how tough we are, we should spend more time focusing on the problem itself, rather than the situation what we think is going to happen. It is always easy to complain than struggle against. Being depressed and upset never helps us survive it, while the creating hope for the future will do us a great favor. No matter what bad situations we are in, we can live with an attitude of gratitude, because the mind makes a difference.
Happiness is in your own hands. Just keep going, and you will get it.
