Where people go to search and to find, experience joy and sorrow, separation and reunion.” Beijing. A city that captivates the dream catcher, lures the opportunity seeker, pushes the weary migrant worker on, and charms the one who believes that dreams will come true. With nothing except the clothes on their back, wide-eyed naiveté and hearts brimming with hope, many venture to the North Capital to fulfill the urban dream. The lucky few experience success quick enough. For the vast majority, they will simply chug along with their daily toil; awaiting the elusive moment for Lady Luck to finally smile at them. It may take a year, ten years, twenty years, or half a lifetime – but they press on. Rabindranath Tagore exalts, The world has kissed my soul with its pain, asking for its return in songs. Under the flicker of the filament lamp, there is a homesick girl jolted awake by loneliness; a weary factory worker who sets off before sunrise to labor yet another day; and a diligent young entrepreneur striving to see his ambition take flight. It takes fortitude to soldier on in this city of 21 million; and strength and solace is found among the like-minded who share the same hopes and dreams. Emboldened by each other, they persevere only through sheer grit and dogged determination. Like a flower that floats on an endless waterscape, a lotus leaf flowing where the gentle ripples leads – no one knows when their efforts will be rewarded or will it all come to naught. Nonetheless, seen in their eyes is a resolution, steadfastness and an unwavering conviction to their Beijing dream.
