What Dreams May Come

To put into words all of the ways this movie touches my soul seems like an impossible feat; thus far it has been.

This is what I envision heaven to be, and how I have perceived my life in many ways.

In the times that I need to cry, for both the good and the bad reasons (though usually the latter), this is where I turn. Sweeping me and my emotions along with it from the very first scene, as I know well what is to come, I cry straight through to the end. This feeling for me is as though it where an affirmation of my own life and all that I face in it.

If you have not seen this movie, or perhaps never truly gave it a chance because you "didn't get it" or where "just not into it", please do. As much as I hope others find this movie speaking to their hearts as it does my own, I hope that those who might desire to be near me can see what I see in it so that perhaps they can see more truly.. me and how I perceive me.

Perhaps some day I can be "so wonderful that a man would chose to spend eternity in hell over heaven" to be with me.

Just some more meaningful quotes...

What's true in our minds is true, whether some people know it or not.

What some folks call impossible, is just stuff they haven't seen before.

That's when I realized I'm part of the problem. Not because I remind you. But because I couldn't join you.

Thank you for every kindness. Thank you for our children. For the first time I saw them. Thank you for being someone I was always proud to be with. For your guts, for your sweetness. For how you always looked, for how I always wanted to touch you. God, you were my life. I apologize for every time I ever failed you. Especially this one...

Chris: Where is God in all of this?
Albert: Oh, He's up there. Somewhere... shouting down that He loves us. Wondering why we can't hear Him. You think?
