Some of the greatest movie experiences that I have ever had have been on planes.
I don’t know why…
But maybe it’s because as you are transported above the clouds,
The ability to lose yourself in a movie becomes easier.
It was nice to watch a movie that played deep with my mind and emotions.
It was a great, romantic story... titled ME BEFORE YOU.
I won’t tell you too much about the movie, but I hope you watch it.
I found myself weeping freely as I watched.
Weeping freely and happily…
I noticed, as I watched, that the movie MOVED me…
I could feel it in my cells, as I watched it… and it was clear to me why…
I see me
clearer than before.
Above all else
I am motivated,
Inspired,
CALLED
by the desire
to improve upon my life,
to make the most of my life and everything in it.
And, not ONLY that…
But by my desire
To play a meaningful part
In helping others
Improve upon theirs,
Find meaning, purpose and make the most of their life.
It’s not just something I say or want…
It’s WHO I AM.
From small things to large,
It is the possibility of
Better,
Clearer Purpose,
Greater Meaning,
Bigger Impact,
More Joyful…
That not only gets me out of bed in the morning
But pumps blood through my heart
And energy through my soul.
Nothing fills me more, than the possibility of helping others
On their journey, as I find my own way on mine.
It’s why I love writing,
It’s why I can’t stop thinking,
It’s what keeps me up at night,
It’s what both unsettles and settles my heart at the same time…
And, movies like “Me Before You” tap into that…
And push my button...
To a fault, I have such little interest or patience for the necessary things that make the world go around…
And, I have such an insatiable appetite for the things that make us as human beings evolve and grow and propel forward.
While the movie was predictable,
and not unlike so many other romantic movies in its plot…
EVERY TIME
I am exposed to the story
Of transformational love…
Of the POSSIBILITY and OPPORTUNITY of LIFE…
The certainty of death…
The importance of time
And of appreciating and acknowledging joy in the moment…
I feel peace and strength,
From knowing
more and more clearly,
Who I am… and Why I am…
At the same time,
I know that I can be cold, ruthless and distant
when I feel like I am situations or with people or behaviors
that keep me from transforming
and growing as I believe that I can...
And, I am seen as so very critical,
and at times unfairly so,
in certain situations,
by those who know me best.
I am working on that...
I love that I can so easily be moved to tears.
I am emboldened to my purpose…
for those I love,
for my life…
my work…
my dreams…
and,
for the simple
and powerful concept
of
understanding
and achieving
harmony...
for myself
AND
in whatever way that I can,
for others.
“Life boldly, live deliberately and fully…
just LIVE”…
...YOU BEFORE ME
In harmony,
Nestor
