Watching the movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life”, the other day stirred my mind.
If you have not seen the movie, you are missing an excellent film; the story shows the lead character what would have happened if he had not existed. He saw how many people he had touched even people he had not met directly and decided that he did not want to die.
Outside of a movie it is harder to see the sphere that we affect. Myself I get caught up in the day to day task and my own goals that take up the day. Since you rarely get the feedback from others who are also caught up in their lives it usually does not come to mind. I am surprised when I get complemented about something I have done.
Many times I can barely remember the specifics of what happened, yet the person was impacted enough to say something about what happened. The only truth that I have found is to be yourself and be aware that there are other people around you.
If you are doing the things that really make you happy in life you will find that you are positively affecting those around you.
It would be nice to be able to see a movie version of our lives but that only happens in Hollywood.
Well back to writing.
