| I watched a movie today that I recommend.
It’s an extraordinary journey of a young man’s quest to become whole.
It’s called “Beautiful Boxer” and is based on a true story of a Thailand boxer
who fought only to support his family
and eventually to pay for sexual reassignment surgery.
It’s tender, and honest, and sadly beautiful. 
I’ve started to create a list of things.
Music I like, movies that move me,
websites I enjoy, and things of that nature.
I want to share this with someone,
that special person whose heart happens to be open to me.
The one who I will give mine too.
I think in doing so, I’ve created a bit of hope.
I am beginning to believe there may be someone who I can create a life with.
That is what I am hanging my hat on, at least today. |

| So there is a small one screen theater in my home town. It was run down and not being used for many years. I remember attending movies there in my youth. Even then it seemed rather old and dirty. The multi screen theater moved in just on the outskirts of town and took the business away completely. It closed and became just a nice looking antique marquee. A few years back someone completely renovated the space, spent over a million dollars to restore it to its original beauty. It’s truly an amazing space now, which has a full bar as well as soft drinks and very in expensive popcorn.
It’s run by very cool looking 20 to 30 something year olds who all hang out at the bar. I tend to want to gravitate towards creative, if not interesting looking people.
The theater only shows first run independent films. They also host musical guests as well as comedians. It’s one of the best things this small town has to offer. A few months ago I came across a trailer for a movie I was sure I would have to wait till it came out on DVD to view. To my surprise, it showed last week at our little movie house. I was able to go and watch it, enjoyed both glasses of wine and the film. Actually theMerlot and “Restless” is what prompted my post Wednesday evening. I have included a link to the trailer ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7t29dNoTxs ) . I’ve also uploaded a very poor Iphone photo of thetheater its self. It’s really a great venue and I’m lucky to have it within walking distance of where I live.

some where between head and heart.
Where smiles at time will
out number tears,
then vise versa. |
