One of the best movies I've ever seen is definitely "The pursuit of happyness" an inspiring and delightfully story based on Chris Gardner's biography.
Chris Gardner is right now one of the richest and most influential buisness man in USA. Nevertheless, his life hasn't been so easy as it seems. Before he became an important person he was merely a medical devices dealer who because of a bad investment got in trouble brushing against hem's poverty.
He had a wife and a son named Christopher but his wife decided to push herself away from both her husband and her son because she couldn't stand that poverty' situation anymore. So, the poor Chris was forced to face all the troubles in his own, and last but not least, with a son who needed much caring.
Since he couldn't afford the renting of his house anymore, Chris and Christopher became nomads, sleeping anywhere,even in a railway station.
Despite all these difficulties Chris had a dream : becoming a broker. Therefore by using his last savings, he attended to a broker course at an important brokerage company. After having worked so hard, day after day, he got the only available position as broker for that company, and thank to his incredible capacities he has built an economical empire.

So, let's strive everyday for our dreams, let's resist to any world's bout and let's take a gaze to the incredible thing we are able to get, without being frightened and trying to work all the issues out which inevitably will come up.
