Why I Write, and Why You Might Want To
Right now counts forever
“There are no ordinary moments.”
— Dan Millman
Most people want their life to count for something. When we pass away, we hope that our lives meant something, to someone. We hope that our existence mattered.
But most people have no idea how to make life count. They have no idea how to give meaning and purpose to what they do.
It’s a constant struggle. How do I have purpose in my life but still enjoy it?
The Greatest Movie Ever?
“So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.”
— Christopher Reeve
As a kid, my favorite movie was the first Superman movie with Christopher Reeve.
That movie impacted me more than any other movie.
Looking back, sure, the movie has a few flaws, but I still think the first two-thirds of the movie are perfect.
At the beginning of the movie, Superman’s father, Jor-El, determines that his home planet of Krypton is about to explode. Instead of leaving the planet, Jor-El commits to stay on the planet with his wife for political reasons.
