We
are in Waco for the day. Made it here
with not too much difficulty. There was
a lot of traffic going through Houston (Imagine that. What a surprise, right?). I think it picked up again further down the
road, but to be honest I was either too engrossed in the movie I was watching
on the computer or, perhaps dozing a bit off and on.
THE
REVIEW:
I’m
sure the dozing couldn’t possibly have been for very long. The movie I was watching was, after all, so
very exciting. Into the Woods. Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Rapunzel,
Prince Charming, Jack and the Beanstalk.
All woven into one massive tale.
I had seen it before but I obviously forgot one minor detail. They sing.
A lot. It’s one of those made for
the movies operas that they sneak through without telling anybody. I really liked the concept, and it was well
done as far as the movie aspects were concerned. And I suppose the people could sing. Way better than I can, anyway. Lots of struggle and angst and dealing with
death and relationships. Even had some
lopping off of appendages. Well, one toe
and one heel in an effort to make the slipper fit. Oh, and the slipper was made out of gold
instead of glass. If you can stand the musical
interludes, I would say the movie is worth watching. If the singing doesn’t strike you, it can
also be quite the inspiration for a few winks in the car on a four hour
drive. Either way, you can’t lose.

John 4:10 says, “This is love: not that
we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for
our sins.”
Father,
thank you for those forty winks yesterday.
I’m sure I must have needed them.
Amen.
