WARNING: the contents of this post may not be related to the title.

just in case you might wonder, i havent been thinking straight for the past few weeks. clearly, im outta my league. i just want to share to you guys something that i have learned when i watched a classic movie that made it big in the past year.

recently, i watched TITANIC. man, i was crying like a baby. back then, i never payed attention to what the characters in the movie say. back then, i was way too young and what caught my attention was that the boat was sinking and then it split in half and many people died. then, i cried because many people had to die and most of them are children. so young, they had today when they have all the chances in life to succeed and be able to live their dreams, if only everything went well. but sad to say, GOD had to take them back for a reason no one can ever tell me.

anyway, going back...now, i have cried (again) watching the movie because of what the characters said in the movie. now, i have realized that they teach me something that i should've realized the first time i saw the movie but then again, i never really paid attention to them so pardon me if you may.

well, come to think of it, there werent really much quotes that moved me. in fact, some of them are just the words that came out of their mouths in their normal conversation. though i havent seen the movie from the start this time, the scene that i was able to catch was when JACK did a painting of ROSE butt-naked with only "THE HEART OF THE OCEAN" on her. (REFRESH: the heart of the ocean is the heart shaped sapphire necklace given to rose by her fiance, whom of which i forgot the name)

somewhere later, when everybody went looking for rose, her fiance opened the vault and there saw the drawing of rose and a note that she left that said...

now you can keep us both locked in your safe

or something like that. i never really got the meaning of it until it dawned on me that the reason why rose ended up in jack's arms is that, she never really loved that guy. she was just forced to be with him for the reason that he was the one that her mother wants her to marry and that he was also rich.

going out of the topic slightly, rose's family was one of the richest people back in their time. they despise poor people for being poor and that they never mingled with them for the fact that they are poor. for them, they were peasants and dirty and rugged and they never lived a decent life, just like them. but for rose, it was different.

jack changed her entirely and made her realize that everything is equal. in the eyes of GOD there are no rich nor poor people and for that, things should'nt be treated like how the rich people should treat them.

though i made it sound so complicated, but that's one of the things that i have realized while watching the movie.

in everything we say or do, being biased should not be our attitude towards things. we should be fair and equal. sure, money can buy you things that you have never imagined, but money cant buy you real happiness nor love. there are things that are far more valuable and far more important than money or fame can ever give you.

what am i trying to say here? nothing that no one knows. everyone knows that we should all have this kind of attitude but what do we do? we tend to be blind towards these things and that we let our pride consume and then what happens? everything crumbles into pieces and we are all left with no option than to be helpless.

we shouldnt be this way. never...
