Movies.

I have always loved movies, simply for the effect they can have. When you see a truly great film, you know it, because it touches you deep down within your soul. Something about the movie strikes a note that harmonizes with the song that is you. Something so simple a thing as a movie can hit you so profoundly, teach you, show you a truth about the world, the universe, open your eyes in ways you've never thought of. A great movie can goes beyond looks and cliches, an creates something truly beautiful.

I have seen a lot of movies, and I continue to watch them constantly. Because a good movie is literally an experience, it will pull at your emotions or invoke deep thought. Sometimes you find a movie with a character that is so real to you, or sometimes they even are you, and there struggle is so like your own. Their frustrations at this absurd and frantic world are your frustrations too, and when you say "What am I supposed to do?" they say it too. When that character goes on a journey, finding something true, you go on that journey as well. A good character can be just as meaningful to you as a real person.

These movies are one in a million, but when you find them you love them forever. Just recently I have seen a few of these treasures, they are my influence for writing this and I will write more specifically about them soon.
