Just a quick post today, but an important one for us all to understand…
I’ve just finished watching a DVD called “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” where Brad Pitt played an award winning role along with Cate Blanchett…
I’m not going to give the jist of the story away, as I would love for you to go and hire it and watch it yourselves to learn the story at the deepest level.
However, some of the lessons that this story teaches are “AMAZING” and even though it’s only a fictional story, it’s a touching one that each of us as human beings all have to go through in our lives.
Here’s what I got from the movie:
1. Live your life in the present and enjoy “EVERY” single moment we haveĀ with our loved ones!
2. “NOTHING” stays the same, we’re all evolving and the only thing to be certain of is uncertainty and change itself!
3. Be grateful for the signs of love from the universe that have guided us to where we are today, everything happens for a reason!
4. Life is fragile, things happen that we don’t understand, we cannot control fate, but rather we need to “SURRENDER” to it!
5. Be the “BEST” you can be, with your limited knowledge of life… And we all have limited knowledge of life (even the enlightened ones)!
I would recommend you watch this movie a few (if not a hundred) times over to get the full and varied meanings of it.
Once you’ve finished watching it, please comment on what you felt, experienced and learned from this truly beautiful movie.
