See the image below? It's a link to a letter that introduces of one of the sweetest and most soulful films I've come across this year—a beautiful creation called
Ambition to Meaning.
The letter is by Dr. Wayne Dyer—and the movie is his first film. (Watching it made me think all aspiring filmmakers ought wait until their 60s before beginning, because
Ambition to Meaning is a gorgeous work.) It follows the journeys of three people searching for new direction and new meaning in the second half of their lives, and the trailer alone is inspirational. (You'll find a link on the right of the
landing page.)
Unfortunately, the movie isn't yet scheduled for release in mainstream theaters. But you're in luck! The DVD is out and many spiritual and retreat centers are hosting screenings. (And if you can't find one near you, you can arrange to host your own as a fundraiser for the charity of your choice—so you can both give and receive. Just
follow the links on this page for more.)
First, though, do enjoy the trailer, and don't forget to give yourself the gift of reflection on your own unique path. It's extraordinary what wisdom, and what opportunity, comes with the passing of time.
To growth and development and the generative potential in all of us, no matter our background or age...
