Crikey!

I just finished watching a special on the discovery channel about the life of Steve Irwin. His accomplishments, work, family and many other aspects of his life were talked about by those close to him.
Yes, I was, and I still am, a big fan.
It was awe-inspiring for me to see how much effort and passion he actually put into wildlife conservation. His love for animals pushed him to soar to great heights and really change the outlook of many about wildlife conservation.
I remembered our discussion on film, after watching a movie about the brothers August and Louie Lumiere; it was mentioned that all art is a matter of choice. In the case of movies, it is choosing what to frame (something like that, at least).
Steve Irwin chose to frame wildlife. And through this he was able to make a significant difference in the world. In my opinion, he really was able to turn nature into art by using a camera to frame it and show everyone that conservation of wildlife is definitely needed to make the world an ever better place.
It seems he was able to accomplish many things while filming episodes for his show; he was able to express himself, at the same time bringing about some much-needed change by inspiring people to care for the environment and go after what they are passionate about.
I used to think only a few people could make such a tremendous difference in the world but Steve Irwin has taught me to think otherwise:
“Be passionate and enthusiastic in whatever you do in life and you’ll be a winner!”
--Steve Irwin
There may have only been one Steve Irwin in the world, but there’s (most likely) only one Bam Gueco, one Jam Collado, one Roman Tiamson and one (Miss) Jewel Castro in the whole planet.
These are all “small” people, living in a big world but with passion and enthusiasm, they become fully capable of causing a HUGE transformation.
Just like ONE Steve Irwin was able to do.
