Still in a bit of recoil from such an amazing movie. This final installment of the matrix without a doubt brings into question (at least in my mind) what is really important, and what isn't. I can understand why some people would just see a movie as entertainment and are only there to escape reality for a couple hours...but why leave it at that? I think directors use their actors as a means to portray the feelings, angst, and the emotion they want to convey in their script. Whether it be to make people laugh and feelgood, or whether it be a journey into a philosophical dreamscape. I guess maybe I am just a dreamer who would like to see more than what is presented to me on the screen. I am not by any means, a high power on the subject of philosophy, or theology, or whatever ology or osophy you would like to bring up, but I am growing and debating/discussing is definatly the way to go at growing.

why have a position on something if you aren't willing to defend it, or even better, question it?

for instance, why love someone? it is irrational, the idea of "forever" is impossible to imagine. We still do it though, we still say "I love you" to family, friends, love interests, and pets. Well sure you can say there are different levels of love. I love my mom a lot differently than I love my friends, or if I had one, a girlfriend. Friendship love is perhaps one of the greatest in the long run. How easy is it to overlook a friendship? good friends are the embodiment of love. You look past their faults, or better, you add to to the positive list.

Why love? because we want to? because we need to? because we...choose to? what are your reasons for love? I can't tell you mine, you aren't allowed to know. that's because this medium doesn't come close to how I can describe my love. you want to know my reasons? I won't tell you, I want to show you, if you'll let me.

Everything isn't about love though, because hey, a boy has to have SOME defense versus heartbreak right? Well, everyone has their defenses versus heartbreak, some just tend to work counterproductively to dealing with the situations that lay in front of us.

All of this, from a Movie.

well that and a mind ripe for thinkin'. Not sure what else I really want to write at this point...other than to:
