Beschreibung

Life can seem boring and repititious at times. We all need a reason for living, and we need for our life to have purpose. I think, that with the proper perspective, we can find meaning and purpose in the most basic, seemingly ordinary, day to day things that most of us take for granted.

I have a confession to make. I watch movies at work. I work in IT support on third shift, and we have a lot of downtime. To pass the time, when my work is caught up, I read, write, and watch movies. A lot of the movies have been given to me by my coworkers. There are a lot of action, superhero movies, such as The Fabulous Four, Batman movies, Iron Man, etc. These are not the kinds of movies that I would pay money to see at the theater, because they get very monotonous and predictable. But, because I have access to them, and I am bored, I watch them sometimes

The Superhero always has some special power that gives him the ability to fight the bad guys and save the world. There is a lot of fighting, flying around in the air, and blowing stuff up. There are times when it seems like the bad guy has the upper hand, but the Superhero always prevails in the end. I guess we identify with the superhero, because we all want to be special in one way or other. Hey, saving the world on a daily basis is pretty cool, right?

We all grow up with dreams and aspirations of being someone great. When you see the commercials on television where they are asking the elementary school age children what they want to be when they grow up, they always say things like, “I want to be a doctor.” “I want to be the President.” “I want to be a famous artist, or actor, or writer”, or something like that. You never hear the kids say, “I want to drive the trash truck”, or “I want to be an underpaid and overworked manager of a fast food restaurant”. But, this is where a lot of us wind up.
