LSS - The Story

I watched a movie again today - The Lucky One. It starred Taylor Schilling, Blythe Danner, and Zac Efron to name a few.

"You know, the smallest thing can change your life. In the blink of an eye something happens by chance when you least expect it. Sets you on a course you've never planned into a future you never imagined. Where will it take you? That's the journey of our lives, our search for the light. But sometimes, finding the light means you must pass through the deepest darkness. At least, that was for me." 

I loved it.

Before, I'd always remember Zac Efron from the Disney movie, High School Musical. Aside from being a long time boyfriend of Fil-Am actress, what's her name? Shoot. I totally forgot her name. I don't have time to Google her either. But anyway, I also remember him with the visible orangey earwax at the red carpet, and his encounter with the paparazzi in London years ago. This time, I will remember him with his role in this film.

I love the film. Oh. Did I just tell you that? Yna has a different opinion though. She hates it.

At the last part, Logan, his character, said,

"Everyone has his own destiny. Not everyone has the choice to follow it. I'm lucky I did."

Then this song played, and now I could't get it out of my mind.


The Story
by Brandi Carlile

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you

I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Oh because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do... I was made for you

You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am  oh
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you.
It's true...I was made for you.


Good night.
