You ever feel like there is something that you should be able to do in your life that will finally let you break out to shine to the entire world? Yeah, me either.
I am always thinking of shit I never do because I am a laze turd. Is that every ones trouble? We just don't have motivation to do anything special with our lives to make ourselves better?
I have a project I thought about today and talked over with one of my co-workers. He was talking about the movie "The Wrestler" and how real it was because he is an older gent and he was around the mid south with wrestling was really big here but was not really popular anywhere else in America. I remember it as I kid. Watching it on the local TV station on Saturday after cartoons. Wrestling was really HUGE here.
Well anyways, he ( my co worker) knows a few of these old wrestlers and goes to church with them and they know a ton of other people and where they all ended up. Most are poor, but not all, and there are all kinds of interesting stories apparently. I got to thinking, what if I got a camera and went around and let all these people tell their stories of the old days. What would they have to say? Would it be interesting and more importantly...would anyone else find it interesting? I have to say this opportunity should not slip away because once these people are gone the stories will die. Is it a good idea to try and document the stories of the people who lived the hard lives of wrestlers in the 70's and 80's? What do you think?
