Sunday while cooking supper and cleaning the kitchen, Sarah had Disney and Pixar's Cars on. It's a great movie, probably in the top three for Pixar. So much thought and detail went in to making every creature a car. Personal favorite- the lightening bugs in the form of small VW Bugs. Genius.
From that movie, Sarah and I took two different feelings. Sarah's were adorable, as the first thing she said after the movie is how interesting it is the feeling of watching these movies with our children. So in five years, we'll let you know if watching Cars with the kids is fun.
My feelings were in response to Bonnie Hunt's character, Sally Carrera. She got fed up with the big city lifestyle and drove until she broke down, which happened to be in a small town full of love. Part of why this affected me was because of a great song we worshiped with at church. I don't remember the lyrics (because I'm not capable. Ask Sarah, she'll tell you the only song I know completely is Happy Birthday.), but they basically say "Lord, I'm in this city, and I'm here for you." I feel many times the desire to have that mentality. I want a connection to a city that makes me want to devote my life to serving God through the city. I don't know what city this will be, or if we'll ever live there. I just know this city exist, and God will take me there when it is time.
Yeah, I've just always had a connection to cinema. When we're watching a children's movie now, I just can't help but get excited thinking about the first time our children see it. I hope they'll love it and all movies the way I do!
ReplyDeleteGood song, too! "Greater things have yet to come, greater things are still to be done in this city..."
Wait. I think Cyanide and Happiness needs to check their Biblical facts... Why is Paul on the shore? Is that even Paul? hmm...
I love Tyler Tuesdays! I mean, I also love SB's blog posts, but it's neat for me when Tyler blogs because I feel like I get to know him a little bit more each time...
