Awesome Story Made Me Teary Eyed

October 13, 2008

I was very distracted today. I was being borderline-emo and was contemplating on the fact that I should really do something to make my life better. And I should do it fast. “Better” meaning I should start pursuing stuff that I really want to do and heave my butt away from the crappy daily routine I live for the past x number of years. I was feeling down (and sleepy) hence, I resorted to clicking my bookmarks under the folder “Awesome Blogs” with the idea that reading these genius sites would somehow churn up content that would wake me up from this stupor.

I was lurking around one of my favorite blogs of all time, Dooce.com, and stumbled upon one of her posts that links to another site that talks about some crazy inspirational shit. And when I say inspirational, I’m talking about stuff that would make me want to do crazy stuff just because I’m so inspired and everything feels so right. Just like this one time after watching Jerry Maguire I decided to run naked around… wait. That’s another story.

Anyway, below is the link that I was babbling about a few sentences ago. I just felt I should share this to all of you. It’s not really a feel good story. It’s one of those tear jerkers that would make you want to be a better person. It’s something that would surely prod your brain cells and blood vessels. I apologize if you nerds find this cheesy. But I also have a heart you know.
