I am inspired!
I recently watched the American Film Institutes Top 100 inspirational movies. Those countdown shows always hook me in as I try to see if I agree with their assessments of what belongs in the top 10! This time I really have to agree. The number one pick for most inspirational movie was It’s A Wonderful Life. This time I really have to agree! I really can’t consider it just a Christmas movie because it has such meaning 365 days a year.
Who can forget Clarence the Second Class Angel’s profound statement while trying to earn his wings; Clarence: Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he? It’s a Wonderful Life – 1946
It’s funny to think about the fact that the movie was not a huge box office hit when it first came out. At the time of its release it was considered a box-office flop! We know it so well now because it became a Christmas movie classic in the 1970s due to repeated television showings. Because the copyright protection slipped, it fell into the public domain allowing TV stations to air it for free. Director Frank Capra regarded this film as his own personal favorite and it was also Jimmy Stewart's favorite of all his feature films. Wow…that’s saying a lot!
So here we are, enduring the trials, tribulations and all the calamities that menopause can throw at us on a daily basis. It can be a challenge can’t it? Let’s keep doing what we need to do to make it a wonderful life for each of us. Through this process we’re learning more about ourselves, how we matter and the difference we do make in the lives of everyone we come in contact with. Even on the days that some people would rather not come in contact with us, or they aren’t that crazy about our mood, we know that without us, “there would be an awful hole!”
