So my roommates and I watched "Letters to Juliet" last night. I had never seen it before but I am certain that it is definitely one of my new top favorites!! Something that I really liked about this movie was that it got me thinking a little bit about my life.
In the end of the movie Claire, the Grandma, reads the letter that 'Juliet' sent to her. It made mention of how 'what' and 'if' are really two of the most innocent words that are in the English language. But when these words are put together, they become something so powerful that can haunt you forever.
I couldn't agree more with this message. I hate when an opportunity presents itself and I deny it. I hate when I am too scared to say something, too lazy to help someone in need, too immature to study more for an exam. I hate to wonder 'what if?'
I like to live my life in a way that I don't ever ask myself that question. I say what comes to my mind when it comes and try to listen to my heart. Of course in the movie 'Juliet' is referring to love, but I think that this can also be applied to most every other aspect of life.
Just think- what kind of a world would this be if no one ever had to ask themselves that awful question? I think it would be a lot better :)
