The movie is really inspirational and sad at the same time. Society and education discourage finding and discovering true purpose. The sad part of the movie looking at the reality most people do not seek true purpose and do not find true purpose. Many look for careers that make money instead of finding satisfaction and purpose. In the movie he said when people do not have true purpose, it affects the communities with depression. The energy is dead without hope for a better tomorrow. In fact such communities actually kills someone spirit who has purpose drive.

In the movie the man said that it is very important to be in the right environment to allow purpose to flourish. I truly agree I did not grow up in a creative environment and I lack confidence to motivate myself. It was so important for me to go to a school strong in developing nurturing me as an artist. My early years began at SMC and it has continued at CSULA. While at SMC teacher believed in me while I was struggling to believe in myself. Once I believe in myself I made better selection in finding images from a proof sheet. I was release to move forward. I moved into graphic design knowing how to select a good image. Since attending CSULA I feel like my worked has continue to be nurture. I am challenged but I feel as my confidence grows I improve my weak areas. I thank all the teachers I had here.

Most people are not able to connect with true purpose therefore they are not allowed to experience find joy and helped society flourish. I feel pretty fortunate to have found purpose in my life after a life of misery. I am one who felt I got a second chance to get my life together. I hope to give to society something valuable.

Even if I do not make a living as an artist I feel fortunate to found something that I enjoyed and that I am O.K. There are so many weak areas in my life as a graphic designer. I feel like I would benefit with more training.
