The Dreamseller

 "We all need to buy a Coma, a second chance to rewrite our story" - The Dreamseller.

The Dreamseller is 2016 Brazilian movie based on the best selling book "The Dreamseller" written by world renown Brazilian psychiatrist and psychotherapist Augusto Cury. The movie begins with a famous psychologist tries to jump from the 21st floor of the building. And his saviour teaches some most beautiful life lessons, I came across. 

Dreamseller is a famous businessman of his time - the Mellon Lincoln, who had a fortune of 50 billion dollars, third richest man in the Forbes 2013, and he had a life that many of us could only dream of.

But he lost his daughter and wife in a private helicopter crash. And there after he goes missing on roads for years. Since then he starts living on streets and teaching people how life is important and tries to help them with Stoicism based philosophy. He asked people questions and answers of these questions made them to introspect about themselves and to find the way of life. And that's how he helps our psychologist, who had bad relationship with his beloved son. In the end, he sort his relationship with his son.

Mellon Lincoln's story best signifies that in the end it doesn't even matter! Having all wealth in the world and after losing his wife and daughter, he became a beggar on the street. And that signifies the value of people whom we love the most and their value in our life. 

As a 27 year old girl being thrusted into an unforgiving world and a "every man for himself " economy, this movie reminded me to stay humbled and rooted as a happy human being amidst life's obstacles. 

Dreamseller in this movie sounds a lot philosophical at first, this movie is filled with scenes that make the reader to reflect on his/her life and bring light to what truly matters to one; their loved ones and dreams. I found the movie very fast paced yet straight to the point in the meaning of certain events; which is amazing. The audience is taken on an ambiguous a roller coaster from the beginning.

Our Dreamseller truly sells dreams to others. Hope is a last thing to lose and hope is not a strategy.

This movie is full of optimism and hope, definitely recommended to all those who feel lost in life.

We all need such Dreamsellers in our society and in our real life who can bring the good change.

 

  

Anata no Soba ni

 You are the prize beyond my reach

That's why

I am just...

I don't think

I'm suitable for you

But why does it seem like I cannot let go

Does the Cinderella story even exist?

This happiness

Can I believe in it?

Is it all right to love you?

Even in this bubble-like dream,

Before I met you, I closed my eyes and gave up

I was drawn to you

For the first time

I ended up wishing

To be happy with you

Can I stay here forever?

I want to be by your side

Can I be next to you?

I don't want to give you up to anyone else

You're the first to make me feel this way

I was never able to get anything

I'm doing this

For the first time

This is special

So, I don't want to let go

I don't want to plan for our next meeting

I want to plan right away

I want you to rely on me during tough times

I don't want to regret anything

Even in this bubble-like dream,

Before I met you, I'd closed my eyes and give up

I was drawn to you

For the first time

I ended up wishing 

To be happy with you

When what I have disappear,

or I lose them

I always thought, "This is Fine",

But you

And my time with you

I want it to last forever

This is what I feel, so

Can I stay here forever?

I want to be your side

So I can suit being next to you,

I will do my best,

For you, who first made me feel this way.
