Remember Me

Sometimes I get the urge to write. To tell what's on my mind. But I don't. I can run through everything I can say. But I don't. I'm trying to work on it and write whats on my mind. Because its moments like these where I feel like it may be important. I just got done watching a move, Remember Me. Amazing movie. Amazing actors. But there is a quote from the movie that stuck with me.

"Gandhi said that whatever you do in life will be insignificant. But it's very important that you do it. I tend to agree with the first part."

And at the beginning of the movie, I had also tended to agree with the first part. At the end of the movie? I didn't. Everything we do affects someone else in some way. Sometimes it doesn't feel like it. Sometimes we truly believe people don't care or that it won't even matter in the end. But it does. A smile to a person can change a life. A simple hello. An agreement to meet someone somewhere. To be at a place at a certain time. To do something absolutely crazy. Do do absolutely nothing. No matter what you do     or don't do     it matters. It matters because it will affect something, someone, anything. What we do can be insignificant. Writing this blog? It can be insignificant to the greater part of life. But it is important that I do it. How will I ever know that maybe, somewhere someday, someone might read it and it could change a life. Maybe this will never be read. But hey, there is always hope that it will. Hope that someone will know that you are important and what you do is important, no matter how small. I like how the actor rephrases his quote at the end.

"Whatever you do in life will be insignificant, but it's very important that you do it. Because nobody else will."

I'll leave it at that. I suggest watching the movie Remember Me. It might just surprise you.
