The Pursuit of Happyness

I like the line in the movie, in which Will Smith talks about Thomas Jefferson and the pursuit of happiness. My mind was instantly stimulated by the perspective presented in the narration. Happiness maybe is not a state or a destination, but a process or a journey. Furthermore, perhaps happiness is only caused by the success after a long and diligent pursuit, and without such lengthy pursuit one will not taste the sweetness of the eventual success, and consequently no happiness.
This movie proved to the audience that Will Smith is a good actor who can succeed not only in comedy and action movies. His acting in this movie is excellent. He successfully acted out the struggle Gardner faced as an individual and as a father trying to provide and protect his son. As an audience in the movie theater, there were definitely times when you think some tissues would come in handy. The movie sends a positive and inspirational message to the audience. Gardner’s pursuit is definitely something extraordinary and inspiring to rest of us. I liked the movie and I liked the message.

i think this movie carries with a very good message, but it was really hard to see what the characters have to go through to reach that “happyness”…. and the happiness comes in the last 5 minutes….sighs….

Good to see you here Jessica!
Jasmine will be back probably by Friday. I am not really sure of her schedule, but she is planning to do the moving during this weekend.
I heard the construction is going to last for several months, and meanwhile I will be staying here in SDSC.
