Mission Impossible

Watched "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol" recently; thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

I get really impressed upon by the certainty of purpose displayed by the hero in these movies. They have such a strong sense of confidence in what they do, that the consequence of their actions ends up being beneficial to a large population of humankind. When Ethan Hunt, Tom Cruise's character, is being assigned to a mission, the robot voice always says "Your mission should you choose to accept..." And he says "Yes." He always says yes, and then goes about performing the tasks to accomplish the mission, with no second thoughts. Talk about reaching maximum heights of doing!

Call me silly, but I can't help noticing the functional similarity between movie heroes such as Ethan Hunt, James Bond, Superman, Spiderman, to name a few, and real life heroes as Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Benjamin Franklin, Madame Curie, the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, etc. These people rest in their definiteness of purpose and thus make their actions seem second nature.

To attain a state of Zen being as this! :)
