, I accidentally turned to the life history of Cameron .
Previously, my impression of this Hollywood director was only that he made the world's highest-grossing movie "Titanic" at that time, and later made " Avatar ", breaking his own box office record. All in all, he is a very successful commercial director. After
turned over his resume, he realized that he was the first person to reach the deep-sea limit alone ( Mariana Trench underwater nearly 11,000 meters). The insane adventure enthusiast, who spent two decades studying the Titanic, is the first person in the world to use a robot to go inside the wreck of the ocean floor to film. His expedition documentaries are all based on his real expeditions.
As a filmmaker, he innovated underwater special effects, brought historic breakthroughs to 3D technology, broke the world film cost record several times, and broke the world film box office record several times. This is a life that is "tossing" all the time.
"If you're always worried and don't take that step, then you'll get nothing." The words
said from his mouth were a complete picture of his life. He is always "taking that step", not only in career, but also in relationships and marriage, and he always lives like a childish old urchin.
Some people say that his life is always mortgaged, mortgaged to dreams, mortgaged to adventure, mortgaged to the best things in the world, mortgaged to curiosity and tireless exploration of the world, and finally, mortgaged to his beloved wife and children. Love the word "mortgage". When Luffy, the protagonist of
's hot-blooded anime "One Piece", went out to sea for an adventure, someone asked him: "Aren't you afraid of death? If you die, you will have nothing." Luffy said: "I have my ambitions, and I want to do them. I will do it no matter what, even if I die for it."
He said: "Without the determination to gamble, we cannot create the future." We live in this world, why is it not an adventure, why is it not in Betting on your life? You can "mortgage" your own life in exchange for the little gains promised by God. Mortgage of life and death can change a life; Mortgage of time and effort can realize a dream; Mortgage of love in exchange for another love; Mortgage of suffering in exchange for a better future; Mortgage of fear , in exchange for a magnificent adventure; why not
dump the tender chicken soup and describe life as a cruel adventure? Tell yourself that if you just sit there, you don’t want to lose anything, and you don’t “mortgage” anything, you will stop moving forward. , let all dreams die. When
was sitting in a cafe, a couple at the next table, holding small forks to each other, fed each other tiramisu , you sip and I sip, sweet and sweet.
The girl suddenly asked: "What is your ideal?" The boy replied: "Raise you." Hearing this standard answer, which she learned from nowhere, the girl pretended to be angry: "I don't want you to be raised." "But I I want to support you." Of course this was just a love story between lovers, but it reminded me of my cousin who was studying in the UK.
Before going to the UK, my cousin also had a boyfriend who was in love with each other. Now she is alone in the UK, single. I attend classes every day, work part-time, and go clubbing with friends. I will graduate next year and plan to find a job there. Sometimes chatting online, she only talks about schoolwork, future plans, the weather in the UK, but never about love. When
learned that she decided to study in the UK, her boyfriend broke down and cried and begged her not to leave. In the beginning, in the face of his retention, my cousin was very moved, and her heart was also shaken, until her boyfriend said: "You don't have to work so hard to study abroad, I will just support you in the future."
's boyfriend's family background is quite good, Said to support her, of course not just talking. But the cousin was stunned for a while before she said: "You know my dream is..."
boyfriend interrupted her: "Isn't it enough to have my love? I said I will support you. I will love you forever. The cousin was silent for a long time: "I once told you about my dream, but you don't remember it, right?"
's boyfriend really doesn't remember it. Perhaps in his eyes, women's dreams are not important. My cousin's dream is to become an international journalist, so she chose to study in the UK, where the media industry is developed, but her boyfriend said he raised her. Their conversations are not on the same channel at all.
's fiery love suddenly cooled downDown, she broke up with her boyfriend very simply. Maybe she will never meet a man who is as careful, gentle, and infatuated as him again, and maybe she will become a "lack of love" woman who only works hard for her career, but she doesn't need someone who doesn't understand her by her side to greet her, that way. The love nest will also become the cage of her life.
Many days later, I saw my cousin write this sentence on her Twitter: "Maybe others think love is beautiful, but I think dreams are better; maybe others need a house, marriage, money, and a stable life to bring She has a sense of security, but I think dreams give a greater sense of security."
So, her choice is: to give up the love that she thinks is good, and be with the real dream.
Two days ago, I attended a potluck. During the banquet, someone lamented the suffering of "Beijing Drift". He came to this city for his dream, stayed away from his family, endured loneliness, and worked hard. Now the dream has become a broken dream, and I don't know when it will come true, and he has already married and had children in his hometown. Happy life... As soon as
said this, many people agreed. There are several people present, except for one or two "indigenous people" in Beijing, the rest are all "North Drifters", although most of them are "North Drifters" with a small career, but when it comes to the pain of drifting, they all have their own sadness. Sighs and sighs came one after another.
At this time, someone sneered: "I want to accompany my parents, I want to get married and have children to live a comfortable life, I want to realize my dream, and I want to gain both fame and fortune. Do you think you are acting in the theatrical version of Doraemon?"
In a word, it was so sharp that everyone was speechless. At the next dinner, no one mentioned this topic again. Later, I had some work dealings with this amazingly speaking buddy.
One day, after finishing work, we talked about the day's affairs.
He embarrassedly said: "I was a bit rushed at the time, but I really don't like hearing people complain. It's a very simple truth that people can't get everything. Don't you think it's hard to sigh drifting, this Does it reveal a kind of lack of self-confidence? What's wrong with drifting? For example, my dream is to build an excellent listed company, then I have to throw myself off the track of safety, and I have to drift. Only by drifting can I be strong Ah. If you really let me live a comfortable and stable life, I'm also worried that my hard work will be worn away."
"If you choose, you must know it, otherwise don't choose." In the end, he concluded. indeed so.
We are not Nobita , and we don't have Doraemon, so we can't be willful. Mortgage yourself to dreams and adventures can no longer be mortgaged to comfortable reality at the same time.
But courage, freedom, dreams, hard work, like-minded partners, aren't they the most beautiful things in life? We all make the best choices for the sake of being with these better things, as Han Han said Like that: "Be with someone you like."
It's a simple truth: when you've been with a lot of good things in life, there's no need to sigh about the chips you've bet on.
