"Sometimes I feel I'm living a meaningless life, and I get frightened. ... I don't handle fame well. Most actors on most days don't think they're worthy. I have no idea where this insecurity comes from, but it's a God-sized hole. If I knew, I'd fill it, and I'd be on my way. ... Actors live dependent on being validated by other people's opinions. ... The good actors are all screwed up. They're all in pain. It's a profession of bottom-feeders and heartbroken people." -Shia LaBeouf

Thanks. It was definatly a learning experience. I hate that bell sound we found and the cut at 2:51.

Spirituality should be nationality.

[GrimmyIndeed]

nice. good message, not in the least lame; all in all, a very good short.

[petertwnsnd]

your awesome. god bless

[TheDiseasedGamer]

nice vid man, love the message "Live for Eternity" (rather than live for today cause living for eternity is allot less selfish)

also the response to the teacher was brilliant "just seemed like the right thing to do at the time I guess", and when the teacher picked up the broom I think its because that too seemed like the right thing to do and it just goes to show that one good deed leads to another. Very inspiring video Petire (love to see more like this)
