This video appears to be broken. It just skips to the end shortly after the first minute.

I once wrote:
"My substantiated, eternal happiness, will be a result of my redefinition of value."
I thought about this while listening to this man, and could only imagine how happy he must be pursuing an interest of such great value to him. This makes me realize that none of us should settle for anything less than such a fulfilling and passionate life style, and that maybe we should take a second look at what we think makes us happy.
