Just going on

The days in passing haven’t been much eventful for most of the part in a long time for me. I keep looking for just the feeling of being alive. In this on-going expedition of mine, which isn’t the most gratifying of experiences. From meeting an old friend, to one who is finally having things work for them, till the one who is still sailing at the storm, it’s not anything big, but the small ones which keeps reminding me to keep looking, to keep fighting.

Obsessed about Shoes?

Necessity is the Mother of Invention

That would describe in a way what drives the plot of Christopher Nolan‘s upcoming film Interstellar. First teaser trailer, living right up to it’s name was just released. Watch it in all it’s glory. While we might be years away from space interstellar travel, that’s a way of solving humanity’s problems as far as resources and natural aspect is concerned. Though that’s far from the problems we have.

Okay I’ll shut up without further deviating, just watch this already:

“We’ve always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments, these moments when we dare to aim higher to great barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known.

I count these moments as our proudest achievements, but we lost all that. Or perhaps we’re just forgotten that we’re still pioneers, that we’ve barely begun.

And that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us, because our destiny lies above us.”

Your Journey Is Your Own

“I feel like my life has taken a turn. I’m heading down a road I’ve never been on before.

Nothing is familiar. The signs don’t make sense.

Do I get off the road, or do I keep riding?

Do I go alone or take others with me?

Who do I trust for the journey?

I now understand why being a leader requires isolation.

I have to remove myself from those whose lives were affected by my decisions. Those I love… as well as those I hate.

It’s getting more and more difficult to be a brother, when my decisions are the ones a father has to make.

By the time you’re old enough to make sense of this life, you’ll know everything about me, the things I’m proud of and the things I regret, and then you’ll be faced with your own decisions. And as much as I want to help you, tell you what to do, those choices will be yours alone.

The only advice I can give you, sons, is to examine who you are as men.

Figure out what’s important to you. Know yourselves. Know what’s in your heart. Don’t be swayed by fear or history or the opinions of outsiders.

Find your own truth.
It will lead you to the things you love.” – Jackson “Jax” Teller (Sons of Anarchy, S06E01)
