In this episode of The Daily Morningcast, we explore the unexpected depth inside 50 First Dates — a film that turns daily repetition into a lesson on love, identity, and renewal. Using the koan “Starting over every day is not a burden — it’s devotion,” we unpack how Buddhist mindfulness, Stoic constancy, and Humanist compassion show up in Henry and Lucy’s story.
From the morning tape to the gentle resilience of choosing someone again and again, this episode reminds us that growth isn’t a one-time achievement. It’s a daily choice. And every sunrise is your first date with the future you’re creating.
