Actually no i am not bloody Ibiza, however just about everything that i have read today has brought me to the quote that is the title of this blog.
The quote is from the movie "About A Boy" and it stars Hugh Grant. It happens to be one of my favorite movies also. basically will (hugh grant) is a guy that has never had to work a day in his life due to living off the royalties of a one hit wonder holiday song his dad wrote. will is very shallow and doesn't have any real relationships in his life. in the opening scene will talks about "no man is an island" which is now where we are in this blog.
so, i read my horoscope for the day, and here it is:
"Nobody is an island -- it's an obvious statement to say that you need relationships to get you through life. Other people provide the acid to your base, and can often be a perfect sounding board for your ideas. But in order to make the deep connections you need for total honesty, you must develop trust. The only way to do this is to take a risk and let someone in. So reach out today -- lower your drawbridge and invite someone to cross your moat."
so, i'm reading this and saying... yeah, i know.... i'm trying.... and then the quotes start coming to me from the movie....
Every man is an island. I stand by that. But clearly some men are island CHAINS. Underneath, they are connected...
Marcus: [thinking] I used to think two was not enough. But now things are great; there are loads of people... I don't know what Will was so pissed about. I don't think couples are the future. The way I see it now, we both got back-up now. It's like that thing Jon Bon Jovi said: 'No man is an island.'
i know, this is random and all over the place... so, then i get home and go to my facebook to see what God wants me to know today, and here it is:
On this day of your life, Lucy, we believe God wants you to know ... that it's time to STOP going through the motions of living, and START living. Are you willing to do that now? Or are you going to wait until all life energy drains out of you and your loved ones who are trying to support you at this very moment? You were not born to follow rules and regulations. Living starts with dreaming. So dream, dream friend, and let dreams show you the path to your bliss.
yeah, so basically the planets and God are telling me it's time...
