Between Movies And Real Life Happenings

Have you ever watched a movie without a conflict and loved it? Conflict in the sense that the hero of the movie had a straight journey and everything he/she was meant to achieve he/she achieved without any obstacle? If ever such movie exists, what would you do after watching it? (that’s even if the annoyance you feel allows you to watch it to the end, because you wonder- why make such a movie in the first place?).

Except for the advent of fantasy movies and science-fictions, movies majority of the time are similitude of the real life. Meaning- life was never meant to be easy. And in the face of all we go through that appears to make our journeys difficult and almost impossible, we must seek to conquer.
Basically, how do we conquer? By keeping our eyes on the end result, and holding on to all the faith we can muster; for it takes faith and firm believe (asides from factors such as hard work, diligence, smartness and all) to make it to the end of our journey and be victorious like the heroes/heroines we see in movies and fall in love with the idea of them.
At the end of our lives, if we do not give up, there would be people who would watch our lives like a movie and smile happily at the end of it, because they are happy we never gave up despite all. Our lives as well would serve as a means of hope to them, as well as give them the courage to face their lives and journeys head-on.  
No doubt, our best lives lies ahead of us, our toughest ones does too. As a result, winning becomes more of a choice than a destiny as it were. Our lives though already scripted, we'll have to choose, just like the actors, to fight our battles. Without the actors will and effort in the movie, the movie is nothing but a script; no life. Think about this.

  3. Thanks for sharing this inspiring and uplifting words. It is sometimes very difficult to realize that to become a hero you must go through the huddles.
    I like this quote "At the end of our lives there would be people who would watch our lives like a movie and smile happily at the end of it,if we don't give up" But what would one hold on to when there is nothing around to hold ?

    1. The only thing we can hold on to in our lowest time is faith. An iota of faith. Perhaps there might be other things, but from experience, faith is about all I can say. Faith and Hope.

    2. Yeah! Holding unto our faith which is the real substance of things hoped for even when the evidence is yet to come

  4. I love the part that says "At the end of our lives, if we do not give up, there would be people who would watch our lives like a movie and smile happily at the end of it, because they are happy we never gave up despite all"

    Life indeed is not a bed of roses, I keep learning that everyday. The ups, downs, and turns life brings our way do a lot to forge who we become.

    When I go through trying times, asides from looking at the future I look at the past at times, I remember how God came through and then hope surges in me and I know he will do it again.

    Thanks for sharing dear Soul Writer.
