The Pursuit of HappYness... a 2006 movie based on a TRUE story about the life of Chris Gardner, and featuring actors Will & Jaden Smith. A MUST SEE!!! :D I don't usually "endorse" or recommend movies, and I don't agree with the use of language in this one-- but it is a GREAT movie (in my opinion). It's not really a "fun" movie, but it is a GREAT movie; VERY INSPIRING-- especially if you watch the interview with the real man, Chris Gardner. It is a "rags to riches" story... but so much more. It does a wonderful job of letting you see the depth of this man's heart and his endurance to make a better life for he and his son. It is EXCELLENT!! And it has *inspired* ME to pursue the life that is in my heart with even GREATER zeal.... to MAKE a DIFFERENCE.... to actively PURSUE what my heart desires. This is NOT about selfishness or greed, it's about FINDING a way to live a HAPPY life while you've got life to live. We only live ONCE and we only have a FEW years to live, WHY not LIVE HAPPILY???? My dreams and goals and desires are not the same as Chris Gardner's were... but that is not the point. The point is to GO AFTER your dreams, goals, and desires-- WHATEVER they are! The life I want to pursue is about as OPPOSITE as you can get with the life Chris Gardner pursued... but it is the PURSUIT (of happYness ;) that matters, whatever that may be :) I *hope* if you ever get the chance to watch this movie, you will! And I *hope* it will *inspire* you as it has me! :) I *hope* you will find a way to PURSUE HAPPYness....
