Jim Carrey on Life

in #life7 years ago

This video is not from me, but I just saw it and I can only share it to everyone:

I always liked Jim Carrey. The comedy movies and the more philosophical ones. He is a great actor and it's not often that I heard truer words than in this video.

The whole video in words

Your need for acceptance can make you invisible in this world. Like many of you I was concerned about going out into the world and doing something bigger than myself until someone smarter than myself made me realize that there is nothing bigger than myself.

Don't let anything stand in the way of the light that shines through this form. Risk being seen in all of your glory. Our eyes are not viewers they are also projectors that are running a second story over the picture that we see in front of us. All the time fear is writing that script and the working title is:

"I'll never be enough"

Bet your whole life imagining ghosts worrying about the pathway to the future. But all there will
ever be is what's happening here in the decisions we make in this moment which are based in either love or fear. So many of us choose our path out of fear disguised as practicality what we really
want seems impossibly out of reach and ridiculous to expect so we never dare to ask the universe for it. I'm saying I'm the proof that you can ask the universe for it.

I realized one night in LA the purpose of my life had always been to free people from concern. Just like my dad I did something that made people present their best selves to me wherever I go. How will you serve the world what do they need that your talent can provide. That's all you have to figure out. I can
tell you from experience the effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.

You can fail at what you don't want so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love!
