Happy Groundhog Day!

Groundhog Day movie. The spiritual meaning behind it, gets us really thinking about the meaning of life-to live in the now and to love, because you just never know if there will be a tomorrow.

Do you love this movie too?

I love it for two reasons…It’s quite funny and entertaining as Bill Murray plays a weather man and (I guess you would call him) cynical, arrogant, self-centered and also ‘egotistical.’ But in time, through experiencing what he did - having to relive the same day over and over- as it never is tomorrow, pretty much forces him to change his thinking and perception of life.

And of course, I love this awesome movie for the spiritual meaning behind it. It really gets us thinking about the meaning of life and what we are here to learn ~to ‘live in the now’…and to ‘love.’ Don’t you think? :-)

Oh my, I guess that last one is funny- if you don’t like winter huh? Hehe~ Well, I know I’m looking forward to catching this movie again….Maybe you too? It just might get us looking at life a little differently once again.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend in whatever you’re doing. But don’t forget, (no matter what the groundhog tells us about the weather) make the best out of each season….Live in the now-enjoy each moment because there may never be a tomorrow. You just never know, right?

Oh, and by the way, remember to add a little humor in your day....It's healthy, and it does keep the doctor away. :-) ~~♥ྀ ☮~. L ღ Ve * & *☼ * ♥ (((( Big Hugs )))) ♥ Tina R. ♥ ~~♥ (*◡*)
