So I just finished a move called “The Family Man” with Nicholas Cage. This movie has me thinking about what I truly want out of life, which I guess is the point of the film. This flick has reenforced an idea that I have been entertaining for a while; I do not care what my career is. I would be perfectly happy doing almost any lame job on the planet as long as I had a loving wife and family to come home to every night. I have often asked myself how my casino coworkers can happily go to the same job every day without any hope for advancement or promotion. This movie opened my eyes, and allowed me to see how they are able to do it. Almost all of my coworkers are married and have/had kids. This allows them to focus on the important things in life and not on their job.
Anyway, I just wanted to pop in and announce that my desire to eventually be a ‘Family Man’ in a house with a white-picket fence is as strong as ever and I believe that I am slowly and surely discovering my purpose in life. I hope all is well!
