"To serve people takes dignity and intelligence. But remember, they are only people with money. And although we serve them, we are not their servants. What we do, Miss Ventura, does not define who we are. What defines us is how well we rise after falling."- Lionel, Maid In Manhattan
In the spirit of mothers day,my script for today are most of the ''single mums'' movies from 'The Fighting Temptations', 'Are We There Yet' to 'Madea's Family Reunion' to 'Maid In Manhattan'. The story lines are about single mothers who have their struggles, also hoping to find love again and are really talented women. Yep, pretty much sounds like me.
Truthfully, I try by all means not to get caught up in movie world because the story lines are too good to be true. But somehow there is always that something that gives an individual that certain connection to a movie. I talked about 'Madea's family Reunion' last week, so today I am in the J Lo mode, 'Maid In Manhattan'.
Jennifer Lopez plays Marisa, who works as a maid in an upmarket hotel,then she is accidentally mistaken for a wealthy socialite by a New York senate candidate,Christopher Marshall.He falls for her,and her son,and then he finds out that she had deceived him.They break up and then have the typical getting back together.
Yeah,yeah.It was a really great movie.How is it similar to my life?Hmmm.It is not,not really.I do not leave in Manhattan that is for sure.I love the Cinderella moment of the movie,where Marissa is in a beautiful ball gown,and she and Chris dance to Glen Lewis',"Fall Again", (amazing song.I get chills and butterflies in my tummy whenever I hear it). But the lesson learnt is that be yourself. It does not matter if 'prince charming' is out of your league, be honest about who you are and where you are from .(And please mention your child(ren)). And yes, people should be forgiven for their mistakes.
Did I mention that at the end Marissa becomes a hotel owner and upgrades her friends to management, and yes, Chris is elected as senator of New York, (power couple). *sigh* What a girl would do to just leave a 'glass slipper' that will allow 'prince charming' to look for her. (Lucky Marissa).
Well the real deal, is somewhere,out there, (for my child and I). Maybe I already left my 'glass slipper' somewhere,or am yet to. As a writer,I will continue to write the script to my life.....
P.S: Always write your love story.
Ciao!
