down and up again

like i promised, i will be introducing a heart-warming and motivating movie that i came across recently. actually, i have watched two of such similar shows since i last post about "3 Idiots" in this blog. anyway, this show is titled "Soul Surfer".

basically, this film is a true story about Bethany Hamilton, a pro-surfer currently who lost her left arm when she was younger thanks to a unfortunate shark attack when she was doing what she loved the most.. surfing. so the entire film technically shows the life she had before the attack, during the attack and after the attack. probably the only passion was surfing from young and her dream of becoming a pro-surfer seemed to blur a little right after the shark attack. nonetheless, she persevere despite initial thoughts of giving up completely to progress to greater heights in her surfing career.

the film also included a major event in history which was the tsunami incident back in 2004.. i guess. there is quite a bit of relation to religion in light of her motivation to stand up again after the shark attack. nonetheless, even if you are atheist or what, i guess that this show is worth your time.






anyway, i also got hooked onto one of the songs used in the film after watching it. i posted it before and i would not have come across such a beautiful song if not for this film. so, in case you missed it, here is the song i am talking about.. this time with lyrics. meaningful lyrics that you can relate to the show.. probably because it was written specially for it. enjoy.
