I saw most of Slumdog Millionaire - it is a really sad, good story. There is so much bad in that movie, and yet the hero still is loyal. It makes me sad for all those kids. You know that has to be how some kids really do grow up... minus the happy ending.
I like happy endings, by the way. I know, a lot people think that it's trite- but I really do like to see someone win especially against stacked odds. And man, those were some odds.
In life sometimes you have to ask yourself " what odds am I willing to go against to succeed"? How far out on a branch am I willing to go to grab the treasure nestled in the leaves? It's no small question, really. It's a question that gets more lopsided the longer you wait... the tree grows higher leaving you farther to fall. Simply put-the older you get the more you have to lose. Tick tock, tick tock.
Well, it is 4:30 am and the family is sleeping. I am the lone soul awake, even our dog Dottie had nodded off. I guess I should start my day of wonder and adventure. Cha, cha pow zing. Super Someone doing something about some things. Duh-tuh-duh.
