"Unbreakable" Sadness

I recently rewatched the film, Unbreakable, on Blu-ray this past weekend.

It was written, produced and directed by M. Night Shyamalan and features Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson. Get a nice synopsis of the film here.

I've always loved this movie. It was a quiet and intense film with some nice superhero overtones. But what always intrigued me about the movie was the character of David Dunn and the choices he made in his life and the "cloak of sadness" that enveloped him.

I saw a lot of me in the character of David Dunn. He was searching for meaning in his life. So am I. David finds his "reason for being" before the movie ends.

I'm still searching for mine.

Is this "sadness" the pain of separation from ones true path or vocation? I don't know.

This movie has reawaken my quest for purpose and fulfillment in my career. Won't stop...can't stop.

How about you?
