Amazingly, I thought of God & the life of Jesus during this movie. The tagline goes "No sacrifice, no victory". When Sam (the main lead) was falling off the building, Optimus Prime caught hold of him and said "I will always be here for you." My heart melt. As I am standing at crossroads now, as I am not feeling absolutely perky about my life, I am reminded that through the life of Jesus, I already have the victory and there is no one time that God is not with me.
"Holy holy holy" thoughts aside, I also thought of my best friend while I was watching the show! Hahaha!! Just a few days ago, I was having a chat with her & we shared about our personal financial planning. I wanted to stop her from getting me another birthday gift. Her reply was "San, just that i know u r my best friend n our understanding since sec school days stays. 1 plate of rice, we share. 1 chicken wing also share. 1 soya bean drink also share." 17 years of friendship goes way back to our Sec sch days when we share food. Not cause we are dieting. Only because we love each other to help each other financially. When I am poor, she share her wealth. When she is poor, I share my wealth.
That really warmed my heart. No wonder the saying goes "A few good friends...." It really does take energy to build a solid grounding for a relationship to be this strong. I was sharing with a friend the other night that I had much more energy when I was younger. In order to get my friend to school, every morning, my best friend & I will take effort to travel to his house, literally pull him out of bed, push him to the shower & make sure he goes to school. In school when he dozes off, we will try to help him stay awake. On Sundays, I will do the same. Just that it's to church & not to school. On a personal note, I wonder where those energy & vibes has gone to. Hahaha!!
Talking about friends, this is also another friend whom we celebrated our 15 years of friendship together yesterday over a meal & movie - Transformers. Every year, without fail, he will be my BBQ dried pork AKA "Ba Gua" provider. Yesterday, he shared with me that he is really the very shy type. He will NEVER ask a girl out. I joked with him "No mah... You asked me out now." He said "AIYO!!! Mei (sister) ah!! Please la! We buddy buddy so long already where got shy?!"
