Putting Yourself Into Something Can Give it Meaning

“Doing something with all your heart gives things meaning”

The above is a re-worded quote from a nice book: The Dog Who Followed the Moon by James Norbury.

I think there is truth in that meaning can arise from what we put into something. Especially if it is with all your heart. What does it mean to do something “with all your heart?”

I guess it means you put your entire self into what you are doing.

NYU Bookstore Talk on Writing and Spark The Flame

Finally been able to upload the talk I gave at the NYU Bookstore, July 21, 2016.

The talk mostly covers some thoughts on writing itself, but towards the end I briefly speak about my book Spark The Flame.

Please forgive the low video quality.

Enjoy 🙂
