Life, liberty...

Life - I had no choice in... and pretty much is a given thing for a while. Really don't get into too many life threatening situations. Liberty - well, that's a choice too - why live in a country where there is no liberty. I grew up in India and immigrated to the united states - both provide ample liberty.

It' that last one - the pursuit of happiness - that is the biggest issue. What makes me happy? My family - a very out of control kind of situation there...and climbing - and guess what - I have been diagnosed with arthritis! So there goes that....

So once again I find myself wondering what is the purpose of life? Liberty? Happiness? Suffering?

Namesake

So, I finally saw the movie namesake. I don't get it. It was a slice of life movie with a slightly misguided young guy. I really don't get it. No clue what the hoopla is all about.
