i enjoy a nice swift ride down the highway (as long as there's no traffic of course)... and the warmer the weather gets, the more excited i get for the opportunity to roll the windows down and blast some tunes. my ride down 287 S towards east hanover was very pleasant this morning, so i guess it gave me nostalgic thoughts that i wished to share
i watched the movie "click" last night, and although goofy and awkward at times, it was actually a pretty decent flick... basically the plot is: dude has beautiful family, but is obsessed with work and being successful so that he can make lots of money to support them and give them a wonderful life - but because he spends more time with his work rather than family, it effects his marriage and relationship with his children... so that's when christopher walken comes in... he gives adam sandler this remote control that can transport himself from the present (play button), to the past (rewind) and to the future (fast forward) - things start to get very depressing though when he starts fast forwarding so he doesn't have to deal with the tough/annoying parts of life... he starts to miss out on things... his marriage and his family fall apart, and you kinda get the picture... anyways watch the movie, it's filled with nice metaphors, and the message is: "enjoy every second/minute/day of your life, and don't try to rush through your days..." kinda makes you think about your life and feel guilty for torturing yourself all the time, instead of appreciating things for what they are... oh and btw... Kate Beckinsale is in it... and she's ridiculously hot
so now i'm in one of those zones... which of course wont last because that is just the nature of me lately these past few years... things used to be a lot simpler, so it was easy for me to soak up the pleasures of life... whenever i said goodbye, i would always say "enjoy your time on earth..." and i really meant it... it's unrealistic for me to follow that philosophy 100% but i'd like to feel like i could get back to a simpler life someday where i don't feel so stressed, and don't get as depressed as i do sometimes... still have a lot more "young" years left in me, and i don't want to waste them
...so far so good on my new years resolution though... i have taken my life by the horns more so lately than before
