INSPIRATION

Everybody Needs A Lift

There are days that seem impossible. From the moment your feet slide out of bed and touch the floor, everything appears to go wrong. That’s why it is so important to have family and friends that are supportive. Those “kind of days” are also why it is great to have inspirational movies to enjoy and inspire.

Such a movie is The World’s Fastest Indian starring Sir Anthony Hopkins. Hopkins plays Burt Munroe, an aging inventor barely surviving on his pension check. The story of Munroe is based on actual events. It illustrates one man’s quest to fulfill his life-long dream: riding his re-tooled Indian brand motorcycle at top speed at the Bonneville Salt Flats (Munroe is from New Zealand and traveling half way around the world to the USA would be no small feat in itself).

This is a heart-warming, gently told story of Munroe’s quest. His demeanor and struggles are an inspiration. At every turn you’re pulling for him to complete his dream. His courage leads others to help and eventually he rides his home-made motorcycle on the salt packed course.

You watch this film because you want a piece of Munroe for yourself. You want to be understanding even under great duress. You want to be generous even when you have very little. You want to complete your life-long dream even against terrific odds.

Take a couple of hours to watch this DVD. Watch it with family, friends or even by yourself. You’ll feel good and you’ll feel invigorated. More importantly, you’ll find the courage to keep daily troubles and issues in perspective.

If is part of life. You can’t control everything. Not everything will move in a positive direction, no matter how noble the cause. You do your best. Inspiration helps keep your focus and perspective positive.

That’s the lesson from the story of Burt Munroe.
