Now I lay me down to take a short nap

Ahh what a day. I finished a script for a movie me and some friends are going to make during the summer. 33 pages, might not be a lot I know, but it should turn into a decent length movie. Last movie we made didn't even have a script and it was 51 minutes long.

I started the script saturday, didn't do it sunday (I had a bit of an accident and hurt my arm), did some monday, a little yesterday, finished today.

I need a life.

I used to write scripts for movies. I finished a couple, but then my computer ate them.

That's okay, they were really dumb anyway.

This is a small section of it. I suck at writing, the only reason I am the writer is cause I have the ideas.

This is not sposed to be really deep and it might sound a bit corny but here is a part of it...

Scott: Vince, you seem to be the one who is staying the sanest out of us all. How can you do it? How can you cope with leaving your families behind to hell?

Vince: As I’ve told Jason its because I know there is nothing we can do about it. Life is a fragile force that no one can control.

Scott: I don’t understand, in all the books, movies, the bible itself, everything turns out for the better of all. Good prevails, why isn’t real life the same?

Vince: You have to realize that real life has forces, not just forces of good an evil. Good and Evil exist yes, but there is another force along with those. Its hard to describe, imagine good is white and evil is black. There is a gray force, neither evil nor good. The third power that keeps all in balance.

Scott: What is that power?

Vince: Humans. Black comes from hell, and white comes from heaven. Gray comes from Earth, from us. We are the neutral force. Think about the fact that we can make the choices, we have to make the choices. Every choice we make is going to affect everything in someway. It might turn out for better, for worse, or won’t affect either side. We are the ones who decide which side the balance tips towards, good, or evil. Unfortunately, most the world has tipped towards evil. That good is numbered. The imperfect human race has been awaiting this apocalypse for quite a time. Most thought that it’d be a nuclear war that would end the world. In the end did we ruin it? Yes, but how did we ruin it? Our actions, the fact we tipped the balance in evil’s favor. That is why this is all happening.

Scott: So, humans are naturally good and evil. They are born with each side; it just depends on what choices they make that affect them?

Vince: Yes.

Scott: That’s a scary thought, you’d think all power was in Satan’s, and God’s hands, but in reality, it’s in ours. Everyone’s destiny is shaped by what we do every second of our lives.

Vince: It’s a scary thought, a very scary thought indeed.
