(nangangalahati na ko sa pagcompose nito kanina until firefox crashed! grrr!)
I'm not a fan of Tagalog Love Story Movies neither am I a fan of Richard and KC.. . It's not that I don't support Filipino films.. .It's just that I don't find them interesting.. . Until this one.. haha! I was browsing the channels earlier, looking for a movie to watch.. .I gave myself a break today so I wanted to just relax and enjoy watching a movie... I bumped into this channel and the setting's in Greece (the place I'd love to go to!!!) haha! Then I started watching it.. .and since (I thought) it's comedy, I've decided to watch it.. .
It's not the typical ideal romantic love story for me... it's not ideal... It's real.. . ^^ And guess what, I just found myself crying (kase towards the end, may drama pala) because I was deeply touched.. . I just felt like I can relate.. . It's not just a love story.. .It's family-oriented as well.. .and lots of lessons could be learned from it.. .
The thing that I liked the most is the script.. haha! They've pointed out that indeed, we are humans.. . Scars are signs that we get hurt, we fail, we are humans.. . We need not deny the fact that we are humans... It's true.. some people look for the perfect guy or mr./ms. right but there's none.. There really is none.. You just have to accept the person for who he/she is.. you don't have to change him/her because we are humans.. .I remember what Elisabeth Elliot told her daughter (in a book entitled Let Me Be a Woman) when she's about to get married.. She said, "You're marrying a human.. .You're marrying a sinner" and yes. It's true. You're not with the perfect guy or the perfect person so don't expect any. We are just living under grace.. .^^
Another point I was deeply thankful to have seen is the point where Seth (played by Richard Gutierrez) encouraged Pia (played by KC Concepcion) to go home--to her father and brother. Pia felt so bad about her father because he's been treating her indifferently because of the mistake she made 6 years ago.. .She planned to resign but Seth insisted that she go home and fix it.. . and leave him (Seth) there.. . (awww!) Family matters... When we're not good inside the house, it's not a valid reason for us to leave.. .it's not again a valid reason to marry or go away with someone else.. . when no one else accepts us, the only persons in this world that will show us love and compassion is our family.. .that's important.. not because you're in love, you'll just throw away your relationship with your family.. .It's a big no-no.
One more point that touched me.. . Pia made a mistake 6 years ago.. nakipagtanan siya.. .but they ended up in the hospital--car accident.. .Since then her father treated her indifferently and since then, she tried to live the way she thinks she would please her father.. .living to his standards.. . but from time to time, she fails.. . and all the more her father treats her indifferently.. . Because the only thing he sees in her is her mistake.. .he doesn't look at her seeing her daughter.. . (aww!) sad but true.. most of the time conflicts arise because we can't forgive and forget.. . The other person is doing his/her best to start all over but unless you open your eyes, you won't see it.. . If you continue to take their mistakes against them, they'll never be good enough.. . And I just found myself crying.. .I cried all the more when (of course) her father realized that he's wrong... and he asked for forgiveness.. . It's just so sweet.. .
Jesus Christ didn't take our mistakes against us.. .and He won't.. .and that's the best part of our love story with Him.. . any father would give up anything for a daughter.. . yes, it may hurt but love overcomes.. .grace abounds.. . mercy released..
