	I [http://blog.skyrien.com/2014/12/31/life-blog-2015/ wrote] in doing a reboot of my blog that I would likely write about special topics, or "things that matter". I'd also like to consider it a key life goal to contribute my time and abilities to these causes.

I proudly state that my most used word on Facebook is "awesome", according to a word analysis on my posts. As one who believes in living a directed purposeful existence for ourselves and the world, I seek that healthy sense of excitement and wonder provides fuel for both. Here will be a collection of topics, people, things that I believe are worthy of a term that's normally hyperbole.

	In the 2014 movie Interstellar, ~~there's a line that any fan of sci-fi would understand--~~that in thinking about the impact of our lives: "We must reach far beyond our own lifespans. We must think not as individuals but as a species." This speaks to the reality that is the project of human civilization. That our generation today lives on the edge of humanity's arc through time implies a great deal of responsibility and significance to our individual finite lives.		In the 2014 movie Interstellar, one principle realized by the characters is that in thinking about the impact of our lives: "We must reach far beyond our own lifespans. We must think not as individuals but as a species." This speaks to the reality that is the project of human civilization. That our generation today lives on the edge of humanity's arc through time implies a great deal of responsibility and significance to our individual finite lives.
