Blessings In Disguise and Two Movies that Inspire

It is now officially day two of my blog yay!  My goal is to write two posts a day.  One in the afternoon and one in the evening.  I'm not really worried with how many people read my blog or how much buzz it gets.  I have put my 2 cents out there and hope that someone will come along and be inspired.  Even if it's just one person.  

Today I tried to have a yard sale but it kept drizzling on and off so I decided to cancel it and wait until another day.  Which is actually a blessing in disguise since I need to rehearse for my time in a local recording studio tomorrow afternoon.  Just singing a few Christmas songs for my December release.  Best to start practicing now.  I will also be laying down a few tracks for a variety demo disc.   My goal is to one day inspire people with my music.  I want to use the money I earn from that to create a place where those with no where else to go can come and be fed, taken care of, and help them back on their own two feet.    But for now all I can do is make at least 3 people smile/laugh a day.  It's the least I can do for this world which seems to be in a never ending depression.  

Oh! I almost forgot to tell you.  I saw a wonderful movie last night called "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" with a bunch of big British Actors and Actresses.  Three I recognized immediately were Bill Nighy (Underworld Saga, Love Actually, and Pirate Radio), Maggie Smith (We all know her as Professor Minerva McGonagall. from Harry Potter Saga), and Tom Wilkinson (The Patriot, Batman Begins, The Debt, and Green Hornet).  I'm so glad I saw that movie.  I could really relate to the characters despite the age gap.  I think that is part of what made it so great.  The movie is about British Retirees who travel to India and take up residence in what they thought would be a newly restored hotel only to find it less luxurious than the advertisements.  Brought together they are forever changed and learn about life and love in a whole new way.  Please take a couple hours out of your day to rent and watch it.  You never know what you'll learn.  I promise you'll be happily surprised. I am definitely buying this when I get the money.

Another good movie i recently rented was Katy Perry Movie.  I loved it.  I am a big fan of her music.  She reminds us that no matter what we are ourselves, and just the way God intended us to be.  She is very inspiring to everyone she meets.  It was nifty to be able to follow her throughout her tour in 2011.  To see the ups and downs and to be reminded just now much like all of she is.  Celebrity or not Katy Perry will be Katy Perry and no one else. Even if you're not a Katy Perry fan like myself, I highly urge you to go rent this movie, and if you like it buy a copy like I did.  It's worth every dollar you spend.

Well I am sure I have kept you long enough.  Go have fun today! Do something different -and don't forget to make at least 3 people smile/laugh today.  Go have your adventure today.  Just because you have to work doesn't mean there's no play.  Until this evening I remain Elizabeth, the girl who dreams with all she has and hopes she has brightened your day and inspired you.  Feel free to drop me a message! Talk with you later!
