Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams It's an hour and a half long. Make the time.

vortexring 0 #10 July 25, 2008 I'm impressed by his statements, such as: "Never underestimate the importance of having fun. I'm dying and I'm having fun. And I'm going to keep having fun every day because there's no other way to play it." "It is not about achieving your dreams but living your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you." "Brick walls are there for a reason. They are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. The brick walls are there to stop people who don't want it badly enough." "No one is pure evil. Find the best in everybody. Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you." The 2nd one I put in bold. Something about that statement that I can't quite put my finger on. Is it because it's something a group of people may likely have a split decision over, in regards to agreeing/disagreeing with it? I certainly agree with such a statement. Without doubt. Cheers for links. 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!" But it's "saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.'

Check out www.npr.org, there's a link to the story they did yesterday on their "All Things Considered" newscast. It was a great story, heard it on the drive home from work. And short enough to be the synopsis you're looking for. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
