Script My Life: Bruce Almighty

Because we are the creations of the Creators, the port is within us!

*making a crucifix sign*'Dear God.Please cut me some slack. I really need a breakthrough...' *watching out for a lightning bolt*. I will try by all means not to blaspheme.

'I've got the power....'. Power! Something human beings thrive to have. There is power in power. Power is control, influence and to some extent success. And after watching 'Bruce Almighty' over the weekend, I realised that power is powerful.

So in the movie,Jim Carey's character, Bruce, is given 'power' by 'God', (Morgan Freeman). After having things not go his way,this newfound 'power', gave him access to make his life the way he wants it.

How many of us have got real power? How many times have we wished we could really have control over our lives? To possess that power that gives us the 'perfect' life.

The power to live forever. The power to prevent bad things from happening.The power to be the 'perfect 10'. The power to have everything. IDEALISTIC.

Yes,I also desire for that 'power'. I really do need to have control of things in my life.The only control I have is my mind and my actions.Otherwise,I have found myself weak,without any influence,or control of other people's decisions over my life,(e.g jobs,getting paid,opportunities,love,etc)

What if I had divine 'power'.On the other hand, maybe not.In the movie, Bruce,(Jim Carey), realises that being 'God',is not so easy. He kept on hearing many voices in his head of people praying.Imagine if mankind had the 'Godkind' of power? To a certain extent maybe everyone would be happy. But then, maybe the human race would have been wiped out. I know if I got angry or wanted revenge, I would probably throw brimstones of fire at those who have wronged me. Imagine the amount of manipulation people would place on other people.

Nah. Only God should have that kind of power. He definitely knows how to use it,and when to use it. *sigh* I guess all one has to do is hope and pray,that things go their way. The only power we hold, is the power of 'faith'.

Power is a state of mind. Faith begins in the mind, then it is a vision, then it is spoken, and in speaking, faith is affirmed in the mind. Faith=Power.

'Who knows what miracles you can achieve,when you believe...'- When you believe, Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey.

There is only one God Almighty....

P.S: Always write your own love story.

Ciao!

Single ladies: Wife material

MPV.....my point of view! Single Ladies: Wifen Material *Royal wave*Hey single ladies,your guide is back.The pursuit for Mr Put-A-Ring-On-It is on.Today I would like to make you a get-a-ring-on-it lady. Now following my articles,'Single Ladies Part 3',where I talked about the prince searching for a 'real princess',or 'Queen';and 'Brown Sugar',where the word 'brown sugar' was defined as wifen material,I would like to talk about 'wifey material'.(Whether we are that). How do we single ladies get that ring-on-it,you ask?By being wifey material.My uncle keeps on telling me,'If you want to become Mrs X,you should be a wife.You are a wife before he puts a ring on it'.What he means is that,a man will treat you the way you portray yourself.How,you ask? Ever noticed the difference between a wife and a girlfriend.Now let me break it down for you.A girlfriend usually,takes life in a more leisurely way;unlike a wife,whose focus is mo...

Script My Life: Love By the 10th Date

Finding love shouldn’t be a duty but it should be a journey that you enjoy the ride while you get to it... I don’t remember when was the last time I related to a number of female characters in one movie. I finally watched Lifetime movie ‘Love By the 10th Date’. The trailer to the movie, written and directed by Nzingha Stewart, enticed me for a good chick flick...about women of colour. The all star cast includes the gorgeous Kelly Rowland, Meagan Good, Keri Hilson and Kellee Smith. We also see Cat Deely, Joshua T Jackson, Andra Fuller and UnReal’s Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman. The story line follows a group of young, successful black friends who work for a high end, digital magazine Nina. The protagonist is Gabrielle Fateful a.k.a Gabby played by Meagan Good. Gabby is a graphic designer at Nina whose love life is an actual struggle. The scene that kickstarts the plot of the movie is when Gabby goes out for dinner with friends and workmates, Margot (Kelly Rowland), Bi...

Single Ladies: Thank You, Next!

I just had the most vivid dream about my high school crush ! I think I love him! But that's a conversation for another day. Hey single ladies, (Beyoncé wave)! How are you beautiful goddesses? I am fine thank you. The journey is so exciting and evolutionary. To imagine where we started from six years ago to date, the amount of internal change and personal growth. Like you, I'm still single, but I'm now single with a purpose. And I can safely say that I am ready for Mr Put-a-ring-on-it, and the whole shebang - flaws and all. Even my brother's girlfriend affirmed that I am a mature woman ready to settle down. But it's not the narrative for all the single ladies and that's okay! My older sister and I always have these conversations about personal growth and self love. She is a wellness and mental health consultant with a background in psychiatry. I am a work in progress with a nursing background, psychology and psychiatry included. I also use my personal e...

Script My Life: Maid In Manhattan

"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 tod...

Script My Life: Marry Me

If you want something different, you have to do something different! Woo, Jennifer Lopez really grated the cheese on this rom-com but I love it! Yes, this Valentines day, J Lo reminds us of all our fantasies of what really love should be. Jenny has always been a girl who loves love. So art somewhat imitates life. Following her reunion with former fiancé, Ben Affleck, we are definitely seeing Jenny from the Block 2.0. Who knew that getting back together with 'the one that got away' two decades later would revive romantically in J lo? We all know that Jennifer loves to be booed up. She's been married three times, engaged five or six (I've lost count). I believe relationship experts would consider her a love addict. But that's none of our business! Just in time for Valentines day, a romantic comedy simply titled, "Marry Me". The stars Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, Maluma, John Bradley, Sarah Silverman, and Chloe Coleman. The movie opens with the title trac...
