I Love This Stuff




As weekends go, this one was great! I caught up on many things to include some quiet time with my husband. Amongst other things we love to do, we watched movies. One movie in particular was The African Queen.
It's rare to find a movie my husband has not seen but this was one he had not.
Years ago I had seen it. My father who is now close to 81 years old told me it was a great movie. We watched it together. I agreed it was a great movie but what I couldn't get over was that this very romantic movie was a favorite of his. I still can't get over that. You would have to know my father to appreciate that one.
Anyway, fast forward many years later and I watched the movie again but now I not only think the movie is great. It is a beautiful movie. Along with The African Queen, there is a movie called. "Bogie" that I watched and rather enjoyed. It gave me better insight into the lead actor. I found out that Bogie loved the water about as much as me.
My love of the ocean is great and when I try to articulate my passion for ocean, I can't. Bogie says it best in the above piece. What a wonderful life he had and I am sure he knew it. Just seeing him on the ocean reminds me of how I feel when I am there. It's just one of those things that helps me....

Enjoy Life!
