"A LIFE LESS ORDINARY"
-
A 1997 film. Absolutely recommended for the dreamers like me and for those who believe and falls in love with LOVE per se and who believes in their dreams that everything will happen at the right time, and place. ;)
-
Determined to live "a life less ordinary," Robert (Ewan McGregor), a down-and-out janitor, kidnaps narcissistic heiress Celine (Cameron Diaz) in hopes of pulling in a big ransom. Unfortunately for Robert, Celine embraces her life as a captive and enjoys Robert's bungling attempt at retrieving a payoff. Add two angels (Delroy Lindo and Holly Hunter) who try to make Robert and Celine fall in love, and the situation becomes extraordinary.(web)

This movie is a proof that LOVE OVERCOMES ALL.

"WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN"
-
A 1994 film. A film that made me realized that men are not created the same, there will always be one knight who will protect his love, his marriage, his wife, his family and turn back on separation and living on their own when the going gets though. Ahhh, that's when a man truly love a woman.

A dramatic treatment of a family torn apart by alcoholism and recovering from it, this was a star vehicle for popular actress Meg Ryan, who plays Alice Green, a school counselor who has a serious drinking problem. Her husband is Michael (Andy Garcia), an airline pilot. Though she's lighthearted and loving, Alice is often reckless and, when drunk, even neglects her children, nine-year-old daughter Jess (Tina Majorino) from a previous marriage, and four-year-old daughter Casey (Mae Whitman), whose father is Michael. After an accident, Alice realizes that she has "hit bottom" and goes into a clinic for rehab. When she returns home, she has kicked her addiction and has become independent and strong, and her perfectionist, controlling husband has trouble adjusting. Michael is used to his wife being weak and helpless, and they end up seeing a marriage counselor to recover from Michael's "co-dependency" on Alice's role as an alcoholic.(web)

10. I realized that "people come and go" and sometimes these people doesn't even cherish the the moments shared with them. They consider me a mere scrap of paper when tainted, it's considered a "BASURA." And for me -every people I encounter is considered God's GIFT!
-
11. And most of all, these people, no matter what they do to ignore me, they won't succeed because I have made a marked in their lives that they will never forget. It's like a tattoo, the more they want to get rid of me, the more it stings and the more I stay! =)
