Something about Movies

"Every man dies, not every man really lives." - William Wallace, Braveheart
"The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all" - The Princess Diaries
"The flower that blooms in adversity is the rarest and most beatiful of all" - Mulan
"Ah, yes, the past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or, learn from it." - Rafiki, The Lion King

This blog post is kind of rant-like, so be prepared for some crazy stuff.
Lately, I haven't been able to learn. Learn from my past, and my present; I am an ever looming cloud over my head. But what of it? Because all of the pain is what allows me to grow and live. But what of living? I have never truly lived, so I merely lived within myself. Myself is beautiful, myself is dangerous. I honestly don't understand why people complain about death. What of it? I assure you that if you lived a life full of what you wanted to do, you wouldn't fear death. I don't fear it. I love life, and I love dying. It is an art, a skill on acquires; you know, to live? And though my current state of mind is not ideal, since I am in pain, I can live through it. That's all I desire to do now. To live, to never give up until the day I die. I won't give up in death either, my ashes will move forever on. My soul will, too. What do I desire to do in life? Graduate high school, build a home, practice my culture, eat of the bread and do that forever on. I just simply desire to live. That is the purpose of life: to fulfill your purpose in life. To live.

I don't watch movies, though. I can't. I can't sit in one place for an extended period of time, because I have to get up and do something. Life is motion, and I desire to move even in death. I usually watch movies involving mythological creatures like dragons. I don't know why, but I always liked them. I'm just ashamed of admitting that because I'm afraid people would think it's odd. But I've learned to accept what makes me happy, what brings me pain. Because it shows me that I'm alive, and I am therefore living. I am here, now; and no pain or pleasure can prevent me from doing that. Nobody can take my life but me.

Actually, a movie that I watched today is the Sacrament. The story of the Eden Parish Massacre. It was quite sad, yet interesting.
