I decided to name by blog space after the not so admired movie titled as “About Schmidt” Throughout, it questions mortality, what you can achieve in life, and how to cope with loss, or change. I don't think I have ever cried as much in 2 hours as I did during this film, and yet at the same time laughed so hard that my sides were splitting.
I like to quote a dialogue from the film by Mr. Schmidt which I really like –
Relatively soon, I will die. Maybe in 20 years, maybe tomorrow, it doesn't matter. Once I am dead and everyone who knew me dies too, it will be as though I never existed. What difference has my life made to anyone. None that I can think of. None at all.
One of the other reason to go for this title is that recently had the unfortunate pleasure of tearing my A.C.L. (anterior cruciate ligament) just 2 weeks ago. My friend was telling me not to worry; I’d be back in less time than everyone else. The truth of the matter is that you cannot rush this process. It's as much a mental healing process as a physical. As a young man you want to push your body to the limit but with this kind of an injury you really have to baby yourself.
I do not wish to continue today anymore as pain is taking its toll over my mind and I cannot think beyond that.
