question reality.

January 29th, 2009

This week I re-watched Fight Club. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it, but realized in the middle of it that one of the reasons I like it is because it forces me to question the reality that surrounds me. I like movies that do that because I think we all need it every once in a while.

There are so many messages fed to us, so many lies repeated continually that we begin to believe them. I need to buy this to be happy. That is what I need to do with my life. This is success.

If we don’t stop every once in a while and take a good hard look at ourselves and the decisions we’re making, and why, it’s easy to have our priorities upside down.

Stop. Question. Challenge. Think.

    I agree – that’s why I love Fight Club… and Donnie Darko. Watch out for the sequel.
