Infinite more wishes for the rest of time.

if there's one thing disney's alladin has taught us, it's that you can't wish for more wishes.

How awesome would it be to wake up one day, and that be the headline everywhere? Scientists have discovered a cure for cancer. I hope to live long enough to see that happen.

Exactly why I hate these fancy art videos. What is it supposed to demonstrate anyway? Put the question in the first frame of the video or the title. Philosophically speaking, this is kind of a "well duh!" question. Not exactly breaking any new existentialist ground here.

It's kind of a safe question too, like a wussy Truth or Dare question that everybody around the table gets disappointed at when it's asked.

I think the pacing of the video and the question itself worked very nicely together.

That I could see my daughter who I haven't seen in 7 years...

That's as real as I can get.

For every person on earth to wake up and realize this life is all they are going to get. Make the most of it.

Love, live, laugh.

I wish that by the end of the day I could forget about the 7 minutes I wasted watching that video.
