I live in the Movies, Dont You?

Things are not as easy as it seems like in the movies. 

things don’t happen over night.

it’s not that easy to tell the difference between friend and foe.

there’s no dramatic irony where we can see both sides of the stage. 

instead there’s time, and progression and arguments and real live interaction. 

I know I’ve lost touch with myself discipline and sense of reality trying to mimic what I see on TV. 

I mean, come on let’s be honest, we're all trying to be that successful business man with a beautiful wife and hot secretary. The caring nurse that saves the day and has all the antidotes for her patience’s and personal lives of her associates. The funny guy that gets all the passes, the drama queen whose life's astray but in the end every day turns out a little for the better. The sleek, witty woman with all of her earthly desires. the sleek, witty man doing nothing all day but his hearts desires. an office geek; morally correct. the vengeful little nerd who personally waited and worked his whole life for his enemies demise. the super hero, the chosen healer, vampires, haunting ghost, the one in a million who got recognized by an outstanding figure for their talent and is now a mega super hit worldwide.  Just special... in my opinion. 

I must admit my desire to be special overheads my interpretation... many of times, day in and day out. But we are who we are for a reason, right? Why am I not you and you not me? 

I wish only for time's plot to reveal itself quickly. I just hope to not look up one day and wonder where time went. why have i wasted all my years in a dream?

I think that we all just want to be important, significant, know that our lives have some type of explanation. bc in the movies they do. in the movies, each life counts (whether they’re getting paid or not!) we see them and think, "if only....” or maybe I'm just speaking for myself. 

I wish things were as easy in the movies. a few takes and I’m in shape, in love, in a million dollar deal. but the movies rarely show a realistic, in depth, detailed and reasonable way to get what you want or go where you planned. Nor do they show a "star" in living room light. Like where I'm at now. hum... I wonder which one of us will make it to the movies first. 'cause I’m not settling for this lamp above me! it makes me look fat! 

Lights. Camera. Action!!!!
