Why do I love movies?

There is so much to be said about movies.. I love them and by love I mean I will quote them constantly! Some would even say this is a great talent. Even when I sit down to choose a movie, it will be one that I've seen over and over again! The amazing, yet scary, thing about movies is that I can put one on and not think about anything else at that time. My mind gets so wrapped up in the movie that I tend to memorize it. I replay in my mind every detail of the scene, the music in the background, what people are wearing, and the words that they say. Forget why I love the movies..it's sounds like I'm "in-love" with movies!

Wouldn't it be amazing if I could harness that kind of love into something that really mattered? What if I could pay the same kind of attention to something or someone instead?I mean, how many times can you quote the same lines before people realize that you never have funny things of your own to say and that you just borrow the quotes of others? Why is it that some of the most sarcastic and mean things that you hear in movies makes for so much laughter? I really don't get it and I do this all of the time!!

What if I spent countless hours (like I do with movies) with friends and building relationships that matter. Then people could be quoting what I've said or vice versa and there would be so much more meaning to the words.

I love movies but I also love the characters that are represented in movies. So many of the people I see in movies remind me of people I know. So I guess movies aren't altogether bad. I wonder if I remind anyone of someone they've seen in the movies... Maybe I'll stop blogging, and go be a movie star like I wanted to when I was a kid. Maybe not.

Then again, these are just some thoughts. If it wasn't about movies and why I love them, it could be about people, or books, or music. More thoughts on probably all of those is yet to come...

Keep waiting
