Movie magic. There's something about sitting in a dark theater that lets you escape the reality of your own life and live in the fantasy of someone else's story. What if the cameras were turned on you? In the movie of your life do you like what you see?
We all love to lose ourselves in a good movie. When I was a girl I loved the Wizard of Oz especially the moment when Dorothy opens the door into that fantastic world. But once Dorothy appreciated how bright and beautiful everything was, she realized she had a bit of a mess on her hands. One of the classic examples of "be careful what you wish for". Spend five minutes in a fantasy and you just might find yourself wishing your old life back. We miss what's right in front of us when we're busy looking over the rainbow. Sometimes it takes stepping into someone else's world to realize how much you love the life you have. No matter how magical the movies are, at the end of the day there's no place like home.
