Ok, so this blog is probably going to remind you A LOT of Alan Watts’ “Life and Music” video from a couple of weeks ago. It still has a lot to offer, though.
For one, it’s from another very underrated movie – Parenthood, with Steve Martin. It’s a great movie about the ups and downs of life (and at every stage of life: child, teenager, adult, parent and elder), and is pretty funny too. It’s worth at least one watch in your life at least, if only because it’s one of few movies that has Rick Moranis in it (and I think the only movie with him trying to sing, too).
Grandma may be a little bit senile, but her message makes a lot of sense. You might really hate the bad stuff in your life, the downs and the negatives. But be honest; would you rather take the bad stuff and let it make the good stuff even better… or do you want life to be just one constant straight line without any of it at all?
Rollercoaster vs Merry Go Round. I know which one I'd choose.
