Its Movie Night: Take II

Today I have some more works for your viewing pleasure.  There is nothing quite like sitting down and watching a story you can relate to. I hope you enjoy these selections.

Beautiful Thing is a wonderful story of self discovery and coming out. There are 10 parts.

Remembrance and Wishes

I want to take time to remember all those that have been lost in the disasters going on in Asia. In such a  short span there have been earthquakes in Japan and China, a volcano erupting in Indonesia, Japan inundated with a tsunami due to the earthquakes, and now Japan is facing a nuclear disaster if their nuclear reactors fail.

Let's take time to remember all those who have been lost. We have lost to many, too soon.

Many organizations are gearing up to help. So if you can, donate to a worthy cause.

To all those suffering you are in my heart and prayers. May you know comfort from your long night and peace in your realization of day. I know words are not much comfort right now but know this soul is with you.

A Challenge

Tomorrow I will resume my links for Florida. I know it has been a big break in between but we can't always control what life sends us. We can however make the best and pick ourselves up and continue.

Today I have a challenge for all of you who read this blog. Find a link I do not already have, wherever it may be in the world, and post it in the replies. Try as I may the odds are I will miss many along the way. So help contribute a site for people to find whatever they need. I will add your links in a upcoming post. Make a difference.

Expression

Few things in life are as prevalent as expression. Everything we do is an expression of who we are. The book we read shows our interests, the colors we wear our preference, even how we speak the care and thought we place in things.

In life you will express many things. We are a wonderful rose in full bloom. Every leaf shows our stretch to grow, our varied colors show our pride, every petal is unique. Its color, its shape, its very texture a definition unique to each of us.

Nurture the seed we are all given and tend it well. Bloom in magnificence. You are the expression of countless expressions. Like the rose if given love and attention it can grow almost anywhere. We must cultivate it however.

Express yourself! Nurture the world with love!

To all my readers I do apologize for being so long to update but I do have health issues that arise now and then. So bear with me during these times. I am beginning to feel better again so I will attempt to resume things.
