WORTH CONSUMING!

Lessons to be learned.

that the present is the past you are building for yourself. Brick by brick. Your actions, words, reactions they all add up, what you say and how you treat those in the here and now. Will you look back on the way you are now, how you are behaving to those around you now here in the present and regret it? It’s not comfortable, maybe I can ask that because I know how it feels to think I wish (in the definitive sense the person is now gone)...

The gone in the permanent sense, sorry for being harsh about it but there is no other loss that comes close. none. Reality is harsh. And it doesn’t do to spend it in the past, past is past. It’s Neitzche’s abyss isn’t it?

Anyhow, I digress, I don’t know if that is what everyone gets from this film, Adam Sandler was excellent, as was Don C. The realisation that his wife who he felt so much resentment for was actually the woman he fell in love with, that she was just trying her best, just like him.

Adam Sandler’s character was well executed, it makes it easy to see how people fall into situations that can destroy them, that events can create a false reality, infact cause a complete disentaglement with reality, disengagement and lack of communication, seeing those who truly love you as the enemy.
