There are certain films that get under your skin, never to come out. They change your life, subtly altering your perceptions of reality, almost always for the better.

I saw the movie back when I was in High School. I had a teacher who told us that we really needed to watch it; in fact, it was our "homework" for the day. We didn't need to bring back a report, or talk about it in class. All he asked from us was to watch it, make up our own mind about it, and that was it. As you can imagine, many friends of mine didn't watch it at all; I did. And yes, I feel I changed a bit from there on.

Back when you are young, you never really stop to think what in the world you are doing with your life. You simply live for the day, hope your grades will be enough to pass, and that's it. Long term thinking involves maybe flirting with a girl. Nothing more. What this film showed me was that we have the responsability and the joy of being alive in this planet. That we are dust, and we will go back to it, so we have precious little time to make a difference. That we have a moral obligation to "seize the day, and make our lives extraordinary" (my favorite quote in all movie history). That the world, basically is ours. That the only limitations are within ourselves, and that we owe it to us to fight, to rebel against conformity, to change what we hate and keep what we love. That living in this world is a beautiful responsability, and that only cowards dare not to change it for the better.

The fact that the cast was basically my age, and was passing through the same dilemmas and situations I was facing made it all so much more powerful.

So here I sit, 12 years from that day. I still don't think I have seized the day completely. But I keep on trying; I always will. I wonder how many people were transformed by this gem of a movie; I hope many.

sometimes i don't know what i should do . sometimes i don't know why i do that? sometimes there is nothing in my mine, sometimes my mine is empty, sometimes it is very complex

 sometimes i want to go down in dark alone for forgetting stresses , sadnesses, hard, difficulties , hurries of life and getting   a relaxed feeling

sometimes I want to go to a place very far, no one  can find out me. I want to travel anywhere,I wants to do anythings I like
sometimes i want I am a leave
adrift on the river forever...
Sometimes I only want to stay at  my home :
surfing wed, finding a  great song,listening to music ,chatting with my friends in over the  world.Life is very simple ! why I must hurry, compete  with others....
