Cammie and I spent the weekend alone together. We went to the video store and just happened to select this movie. I didn't know what the movie was about... I based my decision on the cover. It looked like a movie that any ten year old girl would love. I didn't realize that the story would reflect Cammie's dilemma with judgement, criticism, and self-acceptance. It exemplifies our experience and illustrates the optimism and hope inspired by the courage to rise above the challenges in life, with the capability of "inspiring the world". The final line of the movie said it best... "It's not the curse... It's the power you give the curse". It's one o'clock AM... and as I lie here awake with her asleep beside me, I wonder... Was it a coincidence that we picked this up tonight??? Absolutely! As one friend frequently reminds me...
"Coincidence is God's way of acting anonymously"
I've no idea why I didn't hear about this flick before. I'll be renting it soon. Powerful quote about the curse too. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI love the way God sneaks stuff in under our radar! I'm reminded of the Garth Brooks standard: "Unanwsered Prayers"
ReplyDeleteRight now however I'm praying I'll get some sleep in the next handful of hours . . .
Hope you're already long since asleep!

I don't think it's coincidence about what's on page 4 of September's magazine.
ReplyDeleteCoincidence? Hmmm after the past month...I no longer believe in coincidences...if you know what I mean?
ReplyDeleteKim... You've sparked my curiosity. What magazine? What's on page 4? Don't want to miss it!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling you'll be getting it in the mail soon. You have a divine calling to be that Divine Woman and also to teach your new daugher to be one also. What a neat position you both are in!
