I really really hope that i can make things up for my father before our time runs out. I was never much of a bad kid, but i know that I brought a lot of frustrations and disappointments to his life, things that he didn't deserve on top of all the bad shit he's already been through. It's the most pathetic thing a son can hope to do but i aspire to make a good movie for him. I don't have a lot of handy skills, which is his forte, so the only other way to bring him some honor would be to contribute to one of the few constant things he's always loved. I don't know how else to make him happy, but i dearly wish that i can figure it out in time.

Is it reasonable to claim that all art stems from some degree of narcissism? The idea that you're so confident that your ideas/view of the world are worth putting out for the world to see, to get them to spend their precious time with *your* own abstracted self, is quite arresting when you think about its implications. How can a genuine artist not feel guilty about that? Or maybe i'm just rationalizing my bullshit.
