I was watching a movie recently, and it struck me that movies can teach us some very good lessons in life. You know, the kind of lessons that make us wonder why we can't change the way we look at / do things. So, I'm going to post my take on what lessons I find in movies that I watch from now on, or have watched in the past. Okay, here goes...
Lesson 1: We can't take our life on this planet for granted. The movie is about how a deadly strain of a killer virus decimates human population, so much so that they have to scamper under the earth's surface to survive.
Lesson 2: Not everything that sounds crazy or preposterous is really so. Sometimes, it may just be the truth that we're not yet ready to accept. In the movie, Bruce Willis travels to 1990 from the future, but nobody takes him seriously; they confine him to a mental institution instead. It's only when the statements that he utters casually come true that someone starts believing him.
Investigators into paranormal phenomena sometimes, just sometimes, stumble upon the truth. So while it's good to maintain a healthy level of skepticism about findings that are dramatic in nature, it's also a good idea to keep an open mind, even if only to ask the question, "What if?"
