My wife, baby, and I are on vacation up in Utah between my school quarters. It's a great feeling to reunite with family. I find it interesting that we seem to always appreciate things after we have gone with out them for some time. Tears just welled up in my eyes when I embraced my Mom and Dad, in the tiny front room filled with laughter and noise. I feel family is home. It really is where my heart is, no matter how much of a difficult time I've had with my family we have also had some really great times, and I love them!
Movie ideas seem to rush through my head daily and I can hardly think without plugging an experience I have or others have into a movie. The more I'm learning how to write stories, the more I see that stories can have a purpose far beyond merely to entertain or make money. They can potentially change the mind of a person. It may not seem like a big thing, but to me, changing someone's mind is a huge deal. Change of mind can be the start of a whole new adventure that leads us happiness, better relationships, better citizenship, or even just more respect for ourselves.
