LOVE this week's topic THANK YOU for sharing! My personal awe moments may sound a little simple but so meaningful to me. I am one of the very few people I suspect who loves watching movies or TV shows repeatedly. They remind me of different times in my life: where I was, what I was doing, was I happy, what I in a tough time of my life and I take those mental trips freely and happily.
Friends is one of my absolute fav shows to rewatch as I "grew up" as an adult in my 20s when that show came out and I remember wanting to be Rachel although I'm seriously Monica. I STILL catch surprises I never noticed before when I am on one of my repeat binges. I find story lines are way more powerful now as a middle-aged woman. I am more empathetic. I 'get things' more now than I did when I thought I understood storylines.
Same goes with my now fourth run for the past two weeks of "The Family Stone" movie from 25 years ago taking place during the Christmas holidays. I know the script. I am on point with timing and script delivery and I STILL find new things I never quite noticed before including the first time I saw it in the theater. It hits me differently now having lived through life changing events I truly "get" now vs. when I had no frame of reference at the time of the release. :)
I completely relate to this! Our shared Friends love makes me happy. 😄 And I watch the same Christmas movies every year and have taken different things from certain movies, especially It's a Wonderful Life, as I've gotten older. I experience that with musicals I see again in different years too - I've felt very differently about certain shows depending on what was happening in my life when I saw it. I think it's great to find awe in simple things like this. ❤️
I love this! There really is a lot of awe in life when one thinks about it. You asked what inspires awe in me. My daughter comes to mind immediately!🤗😍
Awwwww. 🥰 (A different "aww" altogether. 😄) Thank you! ❤️
Different awwwww for sure. Both great experiences in life!!!🥰
