Really, I tried a lot to look more handsome because I used to think it was important for someone to be an actor. However, I was disappointed when I started to realize my efforts were not working, and that my appearance had not changed much at all. My dark complexion and my curly hair always followed me even though I tried to run away from them. My mother was there to notice all my activities and she knew me very well. She used to suggest that I focus on developing my attitude and aptitude rather than placing so much importance on my appearance. Then, I realized that I have to become a protagonist (a lead actor) with whom audiences can empathize rather than a romantic actor. I thought my actions should motivate others and bring change in their lives. My roles should shake them and give them energy to overcome every obstacle in life. I wished I could become a lead actor in a biographical movie such as Will Smith’s character in the Hollywood movie “The Pursuit of Happiness”; where the lead character struggles with homelessness. His character is really stunning. Life gives us many troubles, but we should never give up in our struggle to overcome them. I believe that such characters truly share how we can all overcome the obstacles of life.
