A client approached me to make a documentary of a project called Green Seed, with a vision to create nature in the city. a passionate green lover, who puts her word into action regardless of tiny steps she takes, startng from moving her house to the rural area, planting trees around the house, and slowly converting her house to an eco friendly.. i don't know what you call that, it's about reducing the effect of the presence of a concrete house on earth. And now, she's organizing an event for the public to plant trees, spent a year appealing for land order for tree planting purpose. it is even harder nowadays with land developers taking over any single empty land for the so called, land development. Anyway, we had a talk and what inspired me most was that, she asked me about my dream, i said it was to become a director. and she said look deeper, and that i could search for the purpose of my life. i told her at that moment what came to my mind, i said, i feel happy to see people pursuing their dreams, i actually do, they inspire me to go on further, and that i want to be an inspiration to others too, to tell people that life isn't about what the world teaches us, it's about living our lives with our hearts. and media is my tool to tell stories, to share ideas, to inspire others.
and she said, " aren't you living your dream now?"
boom.
mindblown at the spot. yes, greatsam, you're living your dreams now. now get out and make things happen. that's what i told myself. stop being a people pleaser while seeking for approval of those you dont even give a shit about, it's time to just be yourself.
what i miss most are the friendships i have back then, the brotherhood of shisha, those artless infatuation and what nots, the cold harsh dynamic climate, the ridiculous schooling system and mindless teachers. God i miss all of them.
i wish to see my friends again, in Moscow, would that be possible? i'm trying hard to make that happen.
