The Passion Movie

The movie "The Passion" has a very deep meaning to me. When I saw this movie for the first time I thought to myself that in a way I have been brainwashed by society such as parents, friends, and people who are just generally around me. I have a passion and my passion is to be a musician who performs all over and teach others to achieve their dreams as well. The movie "The Passion" has let me look into my own life and ask myself who am I and what purpose do I serve being a musician. In school I have experienced having a teacher who will let you down and make it believe that the mistakes that were made were because you don't have the comprehension skills to be in this classroom. I have been in classrooms and saw how teachers act and sometimes they would say personal things to other students when it comes to their career choice and sometimes even their religion. Some teachers do not have a good sense of teaching but instead understanding the material. Understanding the material and teaching are two different concepts. We are the ones trying to succeed in life, the students. It's up to the teacher to help guide us. Sometimes it's hard to follow a passion especially when there is no one pushing you to be a great. We focus more on the consequences and how we feel that are passions are not good enough so we end up losing faith in ourselves. Yes it is hard to pursue ones dream and we  will fall sometimes but we have to learn how to get back up. We can only do this through experience. Socrates once said "The unexamined life is not worth living". Socrates believed in true happiness which comes from the inside ones self when looking deep down. If we do not see what we are able to accomplish then how can we be truly happy with our selves.
