"Insist on yourself; never imitate... Every great man is unique."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
I managed to watch Albert Nobbs and Beginners this week and I am a happy camper. Glenn Close has outdone herself in my opinion and I have to tip my hat to the costume and make up team. A gorgeous piece of film that will stay with you long after you leave the cinema.
One great thing about watching non-blockbuster-ish films is that you don't have to tolerate giggly teens and noisy parents watching the same film as you do. It's moments like this, I'm glad I'm not married or have kids waiting for me to rush back home to cook, clean and help them with their homework. It may not be politically correct of me to say so but it's true. *bliss*
Weekend is here and I am looking forward to a nice week long break before I start work in a new environment, new people and meeting new challenges.
I have also made peace with the fact that not everyone place the same level of importance into the relationship. In a bid of being brutally honest and in a way, air out my innermost thoughts, I shall say this with no resentment whatsoever. Some people that I meet in church are not christlike. That is not to say, I am better than them, because I'm not. But in a short course of 2-3 years, I have encountered people whom I feel I shouldn't have met in a church of all places. And I am done.
There are plenty of people who have not made the effort to stay close and now it's just water off my back. Quality over quantity and all that. It's really simple; if you blow me off more than a few times and never take the initiative to catch up, I'm not going to bother with you. So yeah, I may not be in a BGR, but I have broken up with a number of friends and that's fine by me. The thing is, most of these people are from church so pardon me if I have a chip in my shoulder when it comes to people who calls themselves christian.
