This is one of the movies in my life that have really moved me. It's not full of action, or drama, or special effects, but it tells a story. And the way I see it, it's a human story. Directed by Percy Adlon, it came out in 1987, and was a sensation. It's set in "a desert road, from Vegas to Nowhere":
I won't reveal the whole story, I know some people who prefer to watch a movie without having an advance on the plot ;) I'll just say that it shows how strong a person can get to be, and how much we can endure. All of this represents how a person can change, and how we are actually free. However desperate the situation may be, there is always a way to find happiness in life, even in the places that you believe are completely different from what you would've liked. I strongly recommend this movie, really. By the way, the main song is marvelous, it's been in repeat in my ipod for like two weeks now. It seems somewhat hypotic.
A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you've beenA coffee machine that needs some fixingIn a little café just around the bend
I am calling you(Don't you hear me)I am calling you
A hot dry wind blows right through meThe baby's crying and I can't sleepBut we both know a change is comingComing closer, a sweet release
I am calling you(I know you hear me?)I am calling you
I'm gonna walk through the desert to find youGone leave behind the only life I knowThere's a place for hearts that need fixingA little café with a magic show
I am calling you(Can't you hear me?)I am calling you
Desert road from Vegas to nowhereThat coffee machine still needs fixing
(Sung by the wonderful Jevetta Steele)
Marianne Sägebrecht is Jasmin Münchgstettener. (Yes, the movie is actually german!)
Bodies... What a wonderful thing, don't you think? They're the temples of our soul but that's not a reason for letting them define who we are. Our body is ours. Not hers, not his, not theirs. So why should them judge it? Why should we care about their judgements? ALL bodies are beautiful if you like them. Some mornings it may be difficult to look at yourself in the mirror (or maybe not, lucky you!) but there'll always be someone craving for it.
Love what you have or fight for having what you'd love! But never, NEVER, let your body bring you down. Because you're more than that. You're more than a flat belly or than a size 42. You are you. And YOU are wonderful <3
So....
!!!!!!
Don't try to be something you aren't....
You wouldn't be happy that way.
Besides, food is pretty awesome, isn't it?
That's the main reason I'm on a seafood diet. I see food and eat it.
