After hours of editing and cutting a nine minute interview into 3:45 I think it is finally ready for people to take a look. This project is for the media convergence class that I am in, enjoy :)

Why

I cook and my class loves the deep fried pies that I have created for a food writing class, and yet when I come home there is attitude and disdain that I have wasted my time since it wasn't spent on him. This is the only reason I can sense a problem. He thinks I am pathetic for continuing to do things for others. I truly enjoy making others happy and in return that makes me happy, so am I being selfish or caring?

I wonder what it is like to be told on a daily basis that you are good and wonderful, will I ever know this statement? Is it something that can be learned or is it an inert capability that one can only be raised with? One can wonder what life is like differently and still not make a change, WHY?

It makes you wonder about yourself when others keep quite. I know that I think to much into things and wouldn't be the person I am now without that, but sometimes the silence is deafening.

Dalai Lama quotes


"When you think everything is someone else´s fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace and joy. Pride leads to violence and evil. The truly good gaze upon everything with love and understanding" Dalai Lama

I want to find the peace and joy in everything. I want to search for good in all and actually find it. I set some ambitions high and sometimes out of reach but until your goals are beyond what you can do now, then how do you grow?
