A Movie To Remember
Recently, I went to Denver to visit my daughter. It was a good visit. I brought my best self there and enjoyed her company thoroughly. One night, after she went home, I was still antsy and decided to go see a movie. Jurassic World was ok but, good or bad (mostly not that great) I’ve seen them all because of falling in love with the first in the series. The Cinemark theater was a little sketchy, somewhat run down but I got my popcorn and enjoyed. The next day I was telling my girl about the movie. She was quiet and then said, “I probably should have told you mom, that is the theater is where the Batman shooting took place 12 years ago. I sat there stunned, without words. After a while, I realized not only did I go to the same theater complex but in the exact theater where the killing spree took place. Questions entered my mind. How in the world did Century Theaters decide to keep that horrible place open? How is it that they think it’s ok to pretend like it did no...
Beautiful post! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteWell said. Life is a journey of learning and I hope it never stops.
ReplyDeleteTill it’s time to do our final check out.
DeleteSort of off-topic but also, sort of on-topic: you asked my what my favourite book was in 2018. It's "Circe" by Madeline Miller -- a wonderful retelling of the Greek myth which is reinterpreted as a story of how a woman truly comes into her own self and personhood.
ReplyDeleteI’m looking it up now.
DeleteInner peace is the ingredient everyone strives to achieve. It sure makes life feel better.
ReplyDeleteIndeed it does.
DeleteIf we each worked on ourselves, the world would be a better place!
ReplyDeleteSo very true. Some people just walk through with blinders on.
