I watched the movie "Hotel Rwanda" with my parents tonight, and it really bummed me out. Right now, I'm depressed and sad. I feel so insignificant. The important matters in my life right now are finding a job, getting my own apartment (once the job part is done), and try and be happy in my own little world. And I was watching a movie about a horrible genocide where one man helped save about 1,200 Hutu and Tutsi refugees.
It makes me feel as though my life has no real purpose, as though my presence on Earth isn't important. Am I going to do one thing in my life that will really be worthwhile? Will I save a man? Will I help a good cause? Or am I just gonna grow old and die without leaving a single trace of my journey on Earth?
*sigh*
On another note, Etienne is trying to jump ladders, we wish him luck and hope he doesn't fall into the abyss.
