I came across this video the other day. . . its a little longer than it needs to be but I really like the metaphor.

I have always been a big fan of Tim Burton’s work:

James and the Giant Peach
A Nightmare Before Christmas
Beetlejuice
Edward Scissorhands
Sleepy Hallow
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Sweeny Todd
Big Fish
Corpse Bride

There is also some kind of unexplainable magic when Tim works with Johnny Deppe. Ever since seeing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I had been wanting to see a Tim Burton remake. While growing up I was always made to believe that Alice in Wonderland was a fantastical kids story, it is most definitely a dark exploration of a drug trip, and I can’t think of anyone better to portray it.

Release Date: March 2010. . . that will be a great month!

The way that someone else lives their life is not excuse for the way you live your own.

We all have our own choices to make in life and we choose who we are going to be.  No negative triat is so engraned in us that it is impossible to break.  We all have the ability to forgive, love, and be humble.  This is not something that comes easily, but though Christ, it is possible.

I wish that I could say that when you treat people with love and forgivness that it will be returned in kind.  But, that is not the case.   Be strong in heart, because where you heart lacks the strenght to endure Christ is there to take the blow.  That is, if you are humble enough to ask.
