Diane Keaton

March 20th, 2012

Now there is a lady I can respect.  I don’t know how she stays so young looking and vibrant.  I love her movies, she is very talented and has the Oscar’s to prove it.  But her personal life is so different from what we see in the public eye.

She grew up like most of us, a normal kid.  She left home at 19 to act in NYC and she struggled (like most of us did when we first left home).    I was surprised that she suffered from bulimia.  She led a happy childhood, but found out in later years that her parents were not the happy couple she had believed they were, when she read her mother’s diaries after her death in 2008.   Her mother suffered from Alzheimer’s (such a cruel disease).

I really respect this woman and what she stands for.

 

2012 – the movie

January 10th, 2012

I watched this movie, 2012, on TV for the second time the other night.  It was a really good movie and gives you something to think about.  What if Nostradamus and the Mayans were right?

What would you do if this was your last year on earth?  Make amends with estranged friends?  Go to church?  Read the Bible?

I think we should live every day as if it were our last on earth.  I am kind to people and try to be a good person on a daily basis.  I do the right thing, I call my mother every day and tell her that I love her.  Think about it.
