Walk the line
I went out last night with my Wife to see the movie about the life of Johnny Cash called "Walk the line". What I got was a movie that delved into the pain of a man and showed how from the pain of life comes that greatest of stories. A man who forever seeked approval from his father, and went every which way to get it. A man who got lost in the world of Sex, Drugs and Rock n roll. A man who was passionate about his music. What's more, I got a connection to that man. Now I have never been a big Johnny Cash fan. But I admire the man with the utmost respect for following his dreams and making them a reality. Can the same be said for the rest of us in life? Not likely. Most of us go through life as the door to door salesman. Never daring to step outside the realm of possibility. Well I tell you right now. The possibilities in life are endless. All you have to do is try. Just watching this movie inspired me to come home and write a song for my father with whom I shared a similar relationship to that of J.R. and his father. So my little peice of advice is this. Don't look at someone's struggle and decide it all looks too hard. Look at thier struggle and be inspired.
