Aspirations

Sometimes, I feel as if this whole blog thing is more like a public journal. It's weird, people knowing what I think.

Anyway, I am listening to the soundtrack to "Spring Awakening". It won a few Tony's at the award show of 2007. It's one of the most deep, sincere, and heartfelt soundtracks I have ever heard. It has the ability (for me anyway), to touch me in ways that music has never before done to me.

The music helps me unwind; it helps me think. Listening to this soundtrack after work, made me want to post this blog. I want to talk about my future aspirations with you all.

While I was on my mission, I received a few letters from my father. He sent one to me right before I left the mission, and there were some wise words in that document. He spoke of the spiritual transition from the mission to home, and now I year later, I can fully attest that there is a difference.

The letter also mentioned what my future aspirations should be. It didn't mention any specific thing, but Dad did tell me to do what I love. He told me to never give up on what I want to do. He told me to not let others bring me down. He told me that my dreams are mine and if I want to accomplish them, I can. He said that to be a millionaire by age 30 would be a good goal, which I plan on doing.

Listening to this music and thinking about that letter has made me want to make other people happy. This has always been my sole aspiration in life. I love to make people happy through entertainment. That is my aspiration. I want people to have better lives, or at least, better moments of their lives through entertainment. That's all. It sounds like it would be easy, but it's hard.

Now, in the world, it's almost unconventional to have "happy" movies. I don't necessarily think I would just make happy movies, or happy shows, or whatever. I just want people to feel good about themselves.

Anyway, this blog has turned into more of a ramble then a blog, but I thought that I would mention what I want to do in my life for everyone who follows this....uh...the end.
