Kal Penn - White House.

Just heard the White House has hired actor Kal Penn as a liaison between Barack Obama's administration and Asian constituents. Looks like homeboy won't be on "House" anymore (he just got killed off) since he'll be working with our prezzie.

I really admire the guy for following his Heart. So many of us don't do that these days. Intead we may hide behind our fears and do something that's safe our entire life...or when it's too late. He left a show that paid him a lot of money to follow his dream. You can't put passion into a dollar amount.

If we all had the guts to do what he's doing, perhaps we'd be better off. I wish I could interview him and understand what made him do this as a young person. I'd definitely shake his hand. He inspires me to think about my passion and my goals. About what mark I want to leave on this universe before I leave it and go into another life and body.

Thank you, Kal.
