My endearment

Ever notice that when u start watching tv for more than 20 years, cable, a thousand channels is just never enough.

Nothing hits the right vibe at the right time, it's just filled with so many things that you just can't be bothered about.

And me and my fellow colleagues around the world crack our heads just to make sure every minute is an experience worthy of anyones 30 to a 60 minutes.

and as usual whenever i doubt it, it just pulls me back in.

there i go flipping between all the reality crap there is out there, to music videos and the history channel, and finally get back to the movies,

terms of endearment was on, jack nicholson steering his car with his foot, that brief scene was enough to hook me in to finish the whole show till 1.30 am in the morning, on a tuesday.

i've probably been to the movies more than i've been to church, two institutions so similar to each other.

you get in to listen to stories about other people, there's sex, drugs, music, drama, war, education and so on.

people get fanatical about both of it, and some are just happy to learn the simple lessons offered and overall there's usually a happy ending, apart from cult movies that are like cults in general.


and u can imagine before the cinema, church was probably the theater that everybody flocked to, it wasn't free either, u can't go to church and not offer anything during collections.


so like both institutions, im fanatical about neither, im not too bothered about the answers to whatever the director has kept from his audience, or the mystery's that god has left us with,

i just take to heart the message of the human condition that both of them lay out.

and i certainly agree to the fact that doing the right thing is usually the harder path,

but a path that leeds to freedom, freedom of fear, and a free man dies contented

and i hate living a totally contented life, but i'd certainly like to die one.

praise be to all the saints and the directors

may we understand the positive messages that have been constructed and have the wisdom to discard the misinformation that lies with interpretation.

this is my prayer

amen and it's a wrap!
