Beautiful, just beautiful

Congratulations to Ben Affleck and Matt Damon for this one. The story is just fantastic. The boy-genius who just wanted to be normal and didn´t want to get the opportunities because he was too afraid of the changes in his life and that he would lose control of the process. Actually, this film isn´t just about the charismatic character Will Hunting, it`s really about us. Maybe neither the director nor the writers wanted to tell this, but that`s just about it. In this lonely world we are afraid to open ourselves to the people around us because we fear they might hurt us. We want to be in control of our own world. Ok, this shields away most suffering, but it also blocks a great heap of happiness . Will has a hard time discovering his true potential and what his life can become. But, than again, so do we. Some people I met hated the film because he rejected great job opportunities and went after happiness. I think these people are afraid to pursue their dreams too. Never give up your dreams
