Fight Club #1

"It's only when you have lost everything, can you do anything"

     So while watching Fight Club with Noah, there were so many good TOK quotes that I started forcing Noah to stop the movie and repeat the quote at me so that I could write it down and do a blog about it. So this is the first quote of a mini-series of quotes from Fight Club, that  I kind of wanted to write about. The narrator stated that once you have lost everything, everything in the world that means something to you and everything in the world that binds you and limits you, only then is it possible to do anything. To fully do anything, without feeling limited or scared by what you are doing because of a set boundary of emotions or morals, you need to have let them go. I agree with this. I think that despite that we feel already that we are invincible, as human beings, feeling that we are able to do anything, we fully do not grasp those occurrences by the reins and do so. We usually feel that something is stopping us from reaching our full potential, and it's usually more of an internal conflict then an external or physical conflict. However by losing everything that means something to you, then how do you technically have something that you still aspire to do. It's kind of a paradox in a way. I figure, as long as you live life the way you want too, then you shouldn't regret anything that would cause you to need to lose everything in order to do the anything.
