Hello movie lovers and fellow participants!

The theme for Week 6, “ Your Life on Screen, ” really struck a passion with me. After a bit of thinking, I chose to watch a movie that I had seen ahead but hits else every time I readdress it — “ The Pursuit of Happyness. ”

This movie, grounded on the true narrative of Chris Gardner, reflects a tract of what I’ve witnessed in life battles, offering, possibility, and unrelenting firmness. While I’ve noway been homeless, I sustain what it means to be in a dark place where everything seems to be falling piecemeal, yet you still show up and fight for your dreams.

5 Things That Motivated Me from the Movie

1. Never allow Anyone describe You What You Can’t suit

Chris tells his son not to permit anyone recite him he ca n’t win individuality — not verily him as his dad. That occasion reminded me to trust in myself indeed when no one otherwise does.

2. Hard Work Pays Off( Eventually)

Chris goes through challenging overdue work, carrying machines on his reverse and running from one appointment to another. That reminded me of my own season of working jobs just to make ends meet, staying for a advance.

3. Holding Onto Hope When Everything Falls Apart

Losing his home, being left by his woman
— Chris kept going. It motivated me to keep faith indeed in my smallest moments.

4. Love for Family is a Powerful Fuel

Chris’s bond with his son shows that love can give you strength to fight battles indeed when your body is weak. I relate to this deeply. The people I appreciate observe me traversing every day.

5. Smile Through the Pain

He smiles through interviews, through rejection, through hunger — and that kind of inner strength inspired me. occasionally people do n’t see your battles, but you keep smiling, hoping for a better hereafter.

My Favorite Character and Why

Of course, my favorite character is Chris Gardner himself. His courage, modesty, and continuity left a mark on me. He displayed that supernova does n’t approach overnight, but when it does, it’s value all the pain. His trip reminded me of my own throes to trail what I cherish — despite pecuniary, fervent, and societal obstacles.

🎬 Two pictures That Inspired Me This Time

1. “ A Man Called Otto ”

This movie was suddenly touching. It reminded me that everyone has a story behind their crotchetiness or silence. It tutored me empathy — to be kind indeed when people do n’t look like they need kindness.

2. “ Barfi! ”( 2012 – rewatched in 2025)

Yes, I know it’s not new, but this time I rewatched it and it touched me indeed more. It celebrates people who love without conditions and find joy in small effects. It reminded me to decelerate down and be thankful.

Final Words

This challenge has subsisted one of the most revelatory ones I’ve anywise partook in. Thank you to the organizers for allowing us to explore not just pictures but also our own hearts through these daily themes. I’m especially thankful for this week — because occasionally, we forget how far we’ve come until we look back and reflect.

To anyone out there still chasing a dream — do n’t give up.
