I have enjoyed a couple of movies recently and thought I would share them with you.
"Take The Lead" starring Antonio Banderas is wonderful. It reminds us that it is our choice to follow.
"Akeelah And The Bee" is about changing the world...one word at a time. I thought it was a great message of how vitally crucial it is to have someone to believe in you. We all need someone to "coach" us, to believe we can achieve.
In the past I have also enjoyed the series of "Substitute" movies that showed a teacher making a difference. The movie the "Principal" with Jim Belushi also showed what a difference can be made when there is someone willing to get involved. Michelle Pfeiffer gave the gift of an "A" to her students in "Dangerous Minds." They didn't have to earn it. They were all worthy of an "A" at the beginning; it was up to each student to keep it.
In life, like in the movies, someone who dares to believe; "Yes, you can", makes all the difference to someone. It might eventually teach them to believe in themselves.
