things learnt from watching Click

don't knock it, i know it's an adam sandler movie. but since when did adam sandler movies disappoint? you always get what you pay for. anyway, click was a surprise though... i thought it'd be happy and funny all throughout but no. i cried! goodness, and i haven't cried in movies in a looonnngg time.

anyway, here are things i learnt from Click:

1. Family first.
needs no explanation.

2. Appreciate your parents
they brought you up and they love you unconditionally. they may have faults but deep down, you know you love them more than life itself.

3. Always have time for your kids
be it the littlest class function or the biggest event, be there. no excuses. they grow up fast.

4. Work is a rubber ball.
remember that little story about how we juggle five balls in life? Four are glass balls that represent your family, faith, health and... hmm..i forgot the fourth ball. You drop them, you break them forever. But the point is, the last ball you juggle is a rubber ball, to represent work. Work bounces back. Sure, you need it to make sure your family has the best. But don't let it consume your life. You do, after all, have other balls you need to keep up.

5. Take care of yourself
there are people who love you. who worry about you. the least you can do is take care of yourself to make sure you're always there for them. and it's good for you to be in good health too!

6. Savor every minute of life
sometimes, all we want is to fast forward. it's a good thing we don't have a remote to do so or we'll miss some really good moments. even the tiniest moments in life have meaning, if only we took a bit of time to stop and live in that moment. time flies so fast enough nowadays that the last thing we need is to speed it up even more.

7. Don't forget to tell the people who count that you love them.
enough said.
