Certainly, one good movie--- "A FAMILY MAN"!


When was the last time that you watched a movie and made you think about the most essential aspects of life? 

I never have written a movie review but tonight, Jim and I watched a movie entitled "A FAMILY MAN." After watching it, I get compelled to spread the word--- of how good, the movie really is. It starred my favourite actor, Gerard Butler--- the same man who played in the movie, "REAL STEEL."

I wouldn't be writing about the plot since it would spoil your first hand experience of it. But I would go out of my way, telling you not to miss it. 


What comes around goes around. 

In this modern day and age, we, at times, devalue family, friendship, honesty, loyalty for making money and making lots of it. We lose sight of the reason why we strive hard to earn a living and get caught up with  greed. 

The glamour of always being on top of our game, can be addicting. This film shows how easy it is to get blinded and how the actor, Gerard Butler (who played Dan in this movie), almost loses his son, his self-identity and his family. 

What's not to love?

Self-worth, our values and our identity makes us who we are. We take pride whenever we dedicate our lives doing what we think is right. But sometimes we forget all these especially when the circumstance isn't convenient. 

We aren't perfect but we should set aside a minute or two reflecting if we are the person whom we wanted to become. 

My dad helps other dads to get a job so that they could take care of their families.

Is a statement that the son, Ryan, states whenever he gets to be asked what Dan, his dad, does for a living. In the eyes of a child, parents would always be good. By this, we should grab the opportunity to be the better versions of ourselves. As adults, we would always serve as children's role models. What we do, affect what a child's perception of good and evil.

Prioritisation 

We should always make sure that we give the best present anyone could ever offer, TIME. This is the only element which allows us to make memories with them. 

Realization?

1. Life isn't all about how much we really have in the bank if it means to say--- sacrificing all that we believe in and the people we love. 

2. Let's take care of each other rather than just looking after our own welfare. 

3. Goodness would always have its way of conspiring the universe. 

4. Let's make this world a better place instead of pulling each other down. 

5. Let's not be quick on pointing a finger at who is to blame. 

6. Do good especially if nobody is watching.


UNTIL NEXT TIME!
