Glory in dreams makes me sad

This is a movie that is very suitable for my current state. The protagonist in the film has achieved nothing, is restless, and under the pressure of the bleak reality, his subconscious mind has led him into fantasy. The dream has everything he wants, beauty, love, success, glory. However, after all, people can not always live in a dream.

It's hard to give up after taking a drug, because the pleasure comes with ease and intensity. Fantasy is such a thing. Everything in the dream is what people yearn for, a noble, elegant and talented self, a sexy and charming companion, and a life full of success and passion. Compared with the life in this dream, the life in reality is extremely boring, choose one of the two, who will choose the life in reality.

However, the cruel reality is that you always have to come back here. You can be your prince in your dreams, but at dawn you will be your beggar again. So the old man in the film said that if anyone can invent the medicine that keeps you from sleeping, he is a genius.

After the prince in the dream came to reality, he was very pitiful. He thought that this was clearly not his world, but he had to endure it. Every minute and every second here was a torment for him. He was just eager to return to him. the kingdom to go. What is even more frightening is that reason tells him that the same life will continue tomorrow.

In fact, there are two paths in front of people, one is to escape from reality and enjoy it in dreams, and the other is to face reality bravely and make reality as beautiful as dreams.

Which of these two paths is better, but the point of the question is not whether the path is good or bad.

When Gary looked at himself in the dream, nana asked him, are you happy, and he replied, I feel sad. How can you not be sad, your ideal can only be realized by dreaming, is there anything more sad than this?

That's enough for me to think that all escapists, with a little self-respect, will do what they should have done.
