A few weeks ago my sister was in a pretty nasty car accident. Leaving her out of work for the next couple months, well i conveniently happened to get sick around the same time... Which means, blockbuster is our new second home. I have watched more movies this week than in my entire life.
Today we watched "the change" or something like that... Really nasty at first. But we both we were to lazy to stand up and turn it off since the remote is broken, we just kept saying it's gotta get better, it's gotta get better. Sure enough it did. Two brothers who feel completely miserable at the phases in life they are at, wished that they could switch places... Well, well.. be careful what you wish for while peeing into a mystical fountain in Hollywood... you can bet that their lives got swapped. In the end they both end up appreciating their lives and every moment that they are living in. They learn to be truly happy again and what is important.
So naturally after the movie is over we go to the sisterly girl talk, Maddie starts venting that she wishes her boyfriend would just marry her already, he just bought this nice new apartment and she is just so excited to have it be hers one day, why wont he commit, I tell her to be patient, and she tells me to be patient next year when cade is home... i laugh and say "girl, please... i now have the patience of job...." then we pause for a moment and at the exact same time say "i will trade you....!" -dead serious at first... Then bust out laughing and almost instantly take our words back.
Clearly... we didn't pay close attention to the moral of that movie...... Operation, love life just the way it is. RIGHT NOW. not yesterday or last week, not tomorrow or next year, just love TODAY :)
