Every time we watch a good movie, whatever genre, we will be swept away in certain feelings, whether streaming tears because we are touched, screaming in fear, feeling tense, drunk with romance, happy etc.
The first film that made it difficult for me to stem my tears was Armageddon in 1998 and the last was Bohemian Rhapsody. We know that it is only a story, and we are not involved there, but still, we have been carried away. After leaving the cinema, whatever our feelings during watching the film will slowly return to normal, but we must have got something from the spectacle.
Now imagine our souls who live inside there, who know that everything that happens in our lives is just a story, will the soul be carried away continuously throughout our story? Our soul also realizes that its essence is Love, Peace, and Bliss, does our soul also feel suffering, sadness, pain, depress, joy, cheering like what happens to our thoughts and feelings?
With those essences, of course not. So, why don’t we celebrate a party for this very exciting story of our lives? Why not every day? Any time? Why wait for a big event that only happens a few times a year? Isn’t that just a celebration for togetherness while we are not always with them? Without champagne, wine, cake, turkey, or others, why not? That’s better!

Very inspiring challenge, I should join sooner!
Thank you so much for the compliment, Ellie. I’ll wait for your works till the next century though.
I am working on being thankful for the good times as well as the bad times.
I am sure your efforts will pay off and you will receive the benefits.
That is true since life is like running a race. The runner that finishes first wins the title.
Hahaha… Are all aspects of life always like a championship?
It feels that way according to the Word Of The Lord.
Hmmm… I don’t think so… Do we compete in families, in couples, in religion, etc.? If it seems like that, then it shouldn’t.
I have heard some sports stars say life is a race.
For certain aspects, I agree. Even some of that can be reduced if we want it, for the sake of a more peaceful life.
You are right on this point since a lot of celebrities have empty lives since their goal to be admired by strangers puts a strain of their family life.
Yep! That’s how they are, even such things happen to many ordinary people and families.
You are correct on this point. The media like to cram that being successful means getting all of the toys in the world which leads to misery.
Apparently we have the same view and language about this, Dee.
That is true since I would rather be face in the crowd instead of being in front of a crowd.
not starting yet this challenge.
Anyway, i celebrate all my triumphs and victory! hep.. hep..
Since you said you would join this challenge, I would still wait, even if it was for ten or twenty years.
It’s good and wise if you do it, Maria.
haha… sure do… you will have fun with mine for sure
In this case, I don’t believe if I haven’t seen it.
haha.. such a good challenger. haha
Hmmm… I have even challenged Muhammed Ali.
We watched the miracles from heaven, and it made us cry. Great insight!
It must be a good movie and you must have taken some wisdom from it.
Yes, the key is faith in everything.
Then believe that you have beautiful paintings about your life.
I was never a big fan of films … there was no time, and now I’m not interested too much … I do not remember when I last looked at a movie
Actually, it’s not about the film but about how we realize our existence on this stage of life’s drama, my dear friend.
Thanks for the kind explanation dear Albert
Just love to discuss for something with you, my friend. Thanks a lot for that.
Thank you too, my friend
I watch way too much TV and often get embroiled in the daily events of the protagonists that I watch or the events themselves whether they be on a show or on the news. As for movies, well I am living one here on Virily every day with all of the posts and reading and also with my work which right now involves translating two books a the same time. That is one of the reason I have not joined the challenge as I am a little bit too busy and cannot concentrate because I am slighly tired. But that will not stop me, in case I am not too present on Virily for the upcoming holiday season, to wish you and Blue (how is he doing by the way?) and all your family a very Merry Christmas and a grand Happy New Year.
Hello dear friend. So glad to hear you.
The most important thing for me to hear from you is that you enjoy life, with any fun and entertainment that makes you happy.
Don’t worry about this challenge, because I’m just trying to invite friends here to be more creative and confident that everyone has an aesthetic taste that can be expressed well. Enjoy your busy life but don’t get too tired, ok?
Blue is very good, he only had a little diarrhea yesterday but the vet has overcome it. I am sure he is three months old now, and I will also post his developments in the near future.
If you are truly inactive during this holiday season, I also wish you a Merry Christmas and a New Year 2019. May blessings and happiness always abundance to you.
Yes I have watched movies that really have gotten to me in deep places unexpectedly. I think that is a good thing to feel these emotions. Then we must leave them in the theaters and carry on with our lives. My problem sometimes is I carry these feeling with me, it is often hard to lay them down and walk away from them.
Thank you for your openness in this matter, Carol.
As humans, it is very good to have a variety of emotional experiences because with that we learn a lot to be able to lead and harmonize them. The problem is that emotion is the strongest main glue to shape our mental and physical reality, whether positive or negative. Various methods of using the power of the mind and energy to achieve various intentions and goals even put emotions as the most important factor to tie dreams into reality. So, the main thing I want to convey here is how our whole awareness can master and utilize emotions as well as possible and not vice versa.
Hmm … when is the last time I watched a good movie …?
Even now you are watching it.
