Today while catchin a quick break outside, just sitting there, puffin about, minding my own business, i noticed a potato chip on the ground. And then I see this ant going in the direction of the chip. Its a big chip, so i know he cant pick it up. So at first i just wanted to see what he was gonna do. Sure enough, he goes to the chip. He just walks on it at first knowing he cant do anything. He isnt strong enough to pick up the whole chip. He is a lone ant, just searching for food to bring back to his queen and probably really far away from his ant hill.
I dont know what he was thinking, but there he was, valiantly trying to do his thing. So i decided to give him a hand. I pressed my finger into the chip and broke it up into little pieces, pieces small enough for his little ant head to get his jaws into. He moved away a little when I crushed the chip, but then he came back. And he started walking back onto the chip pieces. All of a sudden he cant make up his mind! He is walking from chip to chip, back and forth, just doing nothing. So I start thinking, hmm, maybe he didnt want my help. Maybe he doesnt want some crappy chip piece, he wants the whole deal, one big shot.
Then I start thinking, maybe if this ant is so smart, he would have left and came back with a whole bunch of his ant friends.Surely his ant friends could have helped him carry the chip. I wondered if ants have friends. I wondered if he was really thinking what I was thinking he was thinking. Does he have an ant family? Does he have ant dreams and ant aspirations?
Why would I interfere with matters of ant importance?
To be perfectly honest, i am a god to that ant. I am an all powerful being. I can do so many things that that ant cant do, such as talk, stand on two legs, and drive an automobile. I started to feel bad for the ant. The ant doesn't have a very fun life. He walks and gets food and fights and builds. Thats it. So you know what I did?
I stepped on him.

Waking Lfie (2001)
Are you a dreamer?
Man on the Train: I haven’t seen too many around lately. Things have been tough lately for dreamers. They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore. It’s not dead it’s just that it’s been forgotten, removed from our language. Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists. The dreamer is banished to obscurity. Well, I’m trying to change all that, and I hope you are too. By dreaming, every day. Dreaming with our hands and dreaming with our minds. Our planet is facing the greatest problems it’s ever faced, ever. So whatever you do, don’t be bored, this is absolutely the most exciting time we could have possibly hoped to be alive. And things are just starting..

I'm Not There
I watchd 3&1/2(half because 1, i cudnt bear sittin thru) fckin movies today. I kept "I'm Not There" for the last plainly because it didnt sound like it'd be a good movie. But twas a pleasant surprise when i learnt that the movie "I'm Not There" was SOMEWHAT a movie on Bob Dylan. Noticed i've capitalized the word somewhat? Yes, because i stress. Its not a movie on Dylan. But a movie about him?
He is not shown not in one shot, his name is not mentioned not even once, and yet he is omnipresent. Nostalgic carnival, black and white puzzle in wonderful color, subtle kaleidoscope of words and images, which is also a mystery - who, when and where?
Haynes' unconventional biography talking about the life of the legendary Bob Dylan is fascinating as it was all Bob Dylan songs, with the difference that the author is someone else.
Great movie about a great man!

FCKIN LOVED IT!
Definitely have a watch, and if u're not a fan or have not heard any of his works, this movie will most prolly help u with that. Along the movie you will be treated to some of his best(they're all simplehhh awesome btw) music and that might even inspire you to look him up and have u convert!
7 simple rules for life in hiding,
1. Never trust a cop in a rain coat
2. Beware of enthusiasm and of love, each is temporary and quick to sway
3. When asked if you care about the worlds problems, look deep into the eyes of he who asks, he will not ask you again.
4 & 5. Never give your real name, and if told to look at yourself, never look.
6. Never do or say anything that the person standing in front of you cannot understand.
7. Never create anything, it will be misinterpreted, it will chain you and follow you the rest of your life, it will never change.
-Bob Dylan.
Arthur Rimbaud(Ben Whishsaw)quotes it in the movie.
