i don’t know what it is about life that makes it so special
its definitely not just one thing
being a creature who lives to capture these special moments
i figured it was time to make some sense of it,
or at least try
I am getting old.
we are all getting old
everything seems to effect me so much more,
whether it is happiness or sadness.
i am effected.
i feel like i went most my life being unaffected
just going with the flow.
and even though i may still be going with the flow.
i am effected.
recently i took on a journey to clean.
clean my mind.
clean my soul
clean my rooms.
clean my unnecessary possessions
clean my computer.
in this process of cleaning.
i stumbled upon an something special.
hard drives, full of pictures, videos and audio
unsorted, sprawled upon duplicates and triples
a huge huge mess of 15 years of digital data.
not to mention the hundreds of old picture and videos needed to be scanned
i knew it was there.
and i knew it was a mess.
and i knew it was time for me to clean it.
and what a perfect time it was.
since i am effected.
i relook at 100s of thousands of pictures i have taken
they were just a picture before.
i see so much more to them now.
they touch my heart.
they make me feel.
they allow me to remember with a mind that easily forgets.
they make me understand how simple sweet and wonderful it is to be alive.
and i invited you here tonight to remember that fact.
i invited you specifically you. because you are part of my carass as kurt vonnegut would put it
me and fish built this theatre to inspire, and i made this video
to effect. you.
don’t forget to live in the moment,
to smile
and cry when necessary.
because life is good. and this moment right now
and right now and even right now is something so special and I’m glad you
got to be a part of it. Dont forget to create, we a are creatures who need to express ourselves.
don’t get caught up working to live.
find a way to enjoy it while we are in it.
because life is good.
thanks for being a part of my life.
…
life is good.
don’t forget it.
