DESCRIPTION:
1. what have you included in this video?
I have included pictures of me, family and real good Friends of mine. There is a video clip of my Niece eating fudge, me asking my little sister, “What is her opinion of life”, me talking to my friend and her having a Sidekick and I have Footage Of the fancy Things in life. I have a short clip of me recording the Rims of a Car and a picture of me next to it. Then another one with me in the car. And last but not least a video of the landscape of where I live.
2. Explain how different parts of the video relate to your way of life.
Everything in my video relates to my life. I have pictures of people that mean a lot to me. Friends and family and I wouldn't be who I am today with out them.
My Niece eating out of the bowl shows how food is the major part of life, she holds an empty bowl and I showed that part because it makes me realize how blessed I am to have food, to eat it when ever I am hungry. There are people around the world that can’t even lick the fudge out of a bowl like my niece was doing.
I have a very short clip of fancy rims. The reason for that is to show what life people dream of. That is my dream, to have a fancy car and to have a good job. I want to be able to earn it and not get it the quick way.
In a certain part you see my friend on a sidekick. That relates to my life because cell phones are important in this generations, or shall I say sidekicks. The majority of teens have cell phones and not just to text their friends or play music, but to save their life. There may be a time when you can text someone your in danger.
Me showing public safety is because they are the only safety where I live at. We have them and sometimes the real police officers. With out them, there would be a lot of drama. Roosevelt Island is a beautiful place but some of the people there make it ugly.
At the end I show where I live. That's my life.
3. What’s seems good about your way of life? What’s bad? What’s neutral?
What seems good is that I'm happy. That's the main thing. I love my life because I don’t complain about things. Instead I try to make it better [&&] doing that takes a lot of stress away. I have a huge family [&&] having them in my life is good because they are always there for me especially my parents. Having a good relationship with them is good. I know a lot of teens who don’t respect there mother or get disrespected by their parents. What's neutral is everything that I have. I earn what I get. It's just not given to me. There's nothing bad about my life. I'm grateful for what I have.
4. What would you have liked to have included, that is important to your way of life, but weren0t able to?
I was not able to conclude me playing the bongos because I never recorded me doing it. That is important because I love music and it's one of my talents and I enjoy doing it.
ANALYSIS & INSIGHT:
4.What seems to be some of the main criteria you use (emotionally +/or mentally) to assess how meaningful an aspect of your life is?
Love, life, passion, honesty, all of the positive things in life that make the world a better place is meaningful.
5. Is there a pattern in what you find meaningful or meaningless? What are some of the elements in that pattern?
I always see a pattern in "life". Life is choices [&&] I see people making the wrong choices. Wh3n they do that, the ones who don’t learn from it, always are into something. Always complaining about their life and never doing anything about it. But the ones who have a shoulder on their head, makes it in life. Also the one's who went down the wrong path [&&] [&&] chose to do right make it too. Wh3n people start recognizing their blessings then maybe the patterns will turn constant.
6. Looking at the video as a whole – is it a fairly honest/accurate depiction of your life? Does it make you seem interesting/special/exciting?
It's my life [&&] I think it’s exciting [&&] very special. It's very honest because it's who I am. And what I love [&&] what I do. It’s not accurate because there is much more to my life, it has different chapters [&&] this video is just an introduction to my life. My life isn't over yet so there's much more to it. Does it matter if my life is exciting or special? I'm the one living it.
7. Does your life seem meaningful from an outside perspective? Is it from an inside perspective? Why?
My life is meaningful from both perspectives because what I do is meaningful. I don't waste my life doing things that are worthless. I keep my self busy doing things I like, [&&] things that would help me in the future. Wh3n people look at me, I'm doing something exciting or making others happy, I am not always mad [&&] in trouble. Those who are in my life, made me who I am today; those who have done me wrong and good. My life is meaningful because of what I do.
8. What questions do you have about living a meaningful life at this point?
I ask myself what's the point of life? Why is there violence? Why can’t we live in a peaceful world? Are we a dream or characters in a book? How do you live a meaningful life?
