I know how common it is for us to just say "I will, but tomorrow." As days go by that "tomorrow" never happens , we just continue to push all the things that our hearts desire to tomorrow. But how about today? How about making today the time to change because ,really, no one knows if we even have a tomorrow. "carpe di em"
"To change one's life: Start immediately. Do it flamboyantly. No exceptions. " -William James
I recently was given the pleasure to watch this amazing movie. For those of you who have never ventured out into foreign movies, I'm pleading you that of all the movies to watch this is the one you really must watch!
3 Idiots, produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and directed by Raju Hirani, was the top movie in India in 2009. In a country were being at the top of your class is the number one priority, this movie teaches it's young ones (and the "wiser") the most important lessons in life, all by keeping true to its Indian roots. Lessons of love, passion, education, and friendship, you will walk away from this beautifully bright colored movie looking at life with different, refreshed, eyes. I believe this movie was a big step for not only the Indian movie industry but the movie industry in general! It's been so long since we've been able to see a movie that touches the hearts of so many people throughout the world with a modern moral-or-the-story theme and a dash of traditional Bollywood love. If you want to feel inspired I encourage you to please, please, please, find and watch this movie - with, of course, English subtitles!
Here is a clip of the main characters motto being told to friends in a beautiful, and catchy, song - Bollywood style! Before they all broke out into song this is what was said:
Rancho: "Take your hand, put it over your heart, and say 'Aal izz well'.... I understood that THIS HEART scares easily... You have to trick it... However big your problem is, tell your heart, 'All is well, pal... All is well.'"
Raju: That resolves the problem?
Rancho: No, but you'll have the courage to face it
While searching through YouTube I stumbled upon this motivating video of the girls from the movie Sucker Punch. I personally enjoyed the movie, although, there's been so many mixed reviews about it it's hard for me to tell if you'll actually like it. I do admit that the character build and the story is slightly confusing and let's not forget the fact that this movie was really marketed towards men, hence the skimpy outfits and the game-like feel of it all. Regardless, At the end of watching this movie I felt like kicking some major @$$ and that feeling was enough for me to totally love it!
Take a look at this video showing these tough girls preparing for the movie. After you're done watching let me know if you're ready to kick @$$ with me! :P
Favorite Song from Sucker Punch:
I Want It All / We Will Rock You - Queen ft. Armageddon
