Life is Like a Movie

Life is like a Movie

Have you ever had an experience in your life, when you thought for sure you were in a movie? Doesn’t it seem like it at times? Wouldn’t it be great if you knew for sure what was coming next? Doesn’t it seem at times that some of the people in your life appear all too familiar? Have you reached that stage yet, when so many people start to look alike to you. They seem to be so familiar, you wonder… “don’t I already know them, even though you know you don’t? Hmmm…well, maybe there are some reasonable answers to these thought provoking questions. Maybe you just haven’t put your finger on them yet.

Perhaps the answers lie in some pretty amazing places, right inside of you! Could it be that maybe, just maybe you have re-inca
ated yourself so many times, you might be running out of new scenarios and seemly new people to write into your movie script? Maybe, just maybe, it might be time to consider not rewriting the all too familiar movie scenes and character actors in your script. How about writing something new?

Oh well, you have been in similar roles with your acting group, sometimes the parent, sometimes the child, sometimes the leader and sometime the follower, sometimes the something or other! You already know that! It’s a fact! Well, what if you look at your life now as a fantastic chance and fact finding mission to script, edit, if it starts to look too familiar in a non productive way, produce, direct, act and even select your own new cast to join you in your new movie, your new script and your new life. How fabulicious is this!

Start taking the time, to look around you. What is it that you like about your life. What is it that you don’t like? This could be the best time “to get your act together” and start making some positive, upbeat changes. Ask yourself… “If you could change one thing, what would that be?” Write it down and re-right your life. What would you like to see for yourself in the next week, month or year. Write it down and make sure you are not re-writing an old scene from an old movie script that has been over produced.

Maybe, it is time to bring new characters and new blood into your life. Look on your own bright side, you do have one, you know. Life is not always grim and sad.
Write all the “rights” into your new movie. Forget about the “wrongs”. Movie on! Get “in charge” of your own production company. Make sure what you are producing is how you want your life to be.

Get a new theme song. Stop singing the old blue tunes! Get in tune and write a song that sings the words of your new movie. Let go of those sad tunes, get rid of those country and western blues song of being “left alone, high and dry”. Get in tune with your life!
Get really involved in writing your life from the moment you wake up each day to the moment you fall asleep at night. And if you can’t fall asleep some nights, take it as a perfect occasion to view your new movie. Get creative. Enjoy yourself. And be open to inviting new people, new scenes into your life. And make sure you have lots of popco
while you are watching your new movie and your new life.
