1:07:00
Good job you have, man
1:07:01
Well... I like it
1:07:03
Because even in this little town, I really feel li
1:07:06
what I do is very connected with
the real center of people's lives

1:07:09
I'm not saying I'm always Mr Effective...
1:07:11
but I don't feel like my life is off
to the side of what's important

1:07:14
I don't feel that my happiness and comfort
1:07:17
are based on closing my eyes to trouble...
1:07:20
within myself or trouble in other people
1:07:22
I don't feel like a negligible little scrap...
1:07:24
floating around in some kind of empty void
With no sense of connected-ness to anything...

1:07:28
around me except by virtue of whatever little
philosophies I can scrape together on my own

1:07:34
Well...
1:07:36
Can I ask you, Terry... do you think
your life is important?

1:07:44
You mean, like, me personally?
My individual life?

1:07:47
Yeah
1:07:51
I'm not really sure, what do you mean?
It's important to me, I guess

1:07:53
And like, to my... you know
the people who care about me

1:07:57
But do you think it's important?
1:08:01
I...
1:08:02
Do you think it's important in the scheme
of things?

1:08:04
Not just because it's yours
or because you're somebody's brother

1:08:09
Because I really don't get
the impression that you do

1:08:18
Well I particularly don't think anybody's life
has any particular importance besides whatever

1:08:23
you know, like whatever we arbitrarily give it
1:08:25
Which is fine. I mean, you know
we might as well

1:08:29
I think my life is as important as anybody else
1:08:40
I don't know... A lot of what you're saying
has real appeal to me

1:08:47
A lot of the stuff they told us when we
were kids

1:08:50
But I don't want to believe or not believe
in something because I might feel bad

1:08:53
I want to believe in it and not believe in it
because I think it's true or not

1:08:54
Yeha, I want to think my life is important
1:08:58
That it's connected to something important
