Everyone has a Story – Even the Olympians!

I’ve been part of a campaign at University called iCraveChange. As part of the campaign, I had the exciting opportunity of getting my story filmed. Through the many stories that were put up (you can view some of them at the facebook page -- http://www.facebook.com/iCraveChange), one of the things I learned is that everyone has a story.

Life can be busy and heavily experiential, and so I find it easy to get lost in my own world and my story, and forget that everyone else out there has a story as well. Everyone has lived on earth for X amount of years, and is shaped by their parents, friends and family, choices and life experiences around them. We all have dreams, visions, goals, desires and passions. We all crave Intimacy, Destiny, and Meaning.

Watching the Olympics, it’s easy to forget that every Olympian has a story as well. Below is the story of Olympic snow boarder Kelly Clark, who despite having everything she wanted, craved meaning.

Beta Testing the Standard Theme

When developing websites, the hardest and most frustrating part for me is finding a theme that works. I can almost never find a theme that works out of the box.

This week I’ll begin beta testing the standard theme.

I’m excited, and cannot wait – this is truly a privilege for me. Part of the reasons I’m excited is that @human3rror , aka John Saddington is behind it, and I trust him enough to have faith in the theme.

Hopefully this does not lead me to Wordpress Insomnia.

Question: Has any hobby led you to Insomnia or something close?

Video Game Addiction: Amazing Must-Watch Video

Video games are a blessing and a curse. I know a gamer who lost his marriage over Counter-Strike. I also know a gamer who is still alive today because of her video gaming community. This video summarizes the two remarkably well -- props to the author!

Question: What are your thoughts on the video? Have you experienced any of this in your life, or the life of someone you know?

I hope to blog soon about some of my experiences with video gaming.
