Movies should be experienced on the
big screen with family and friends
Something I have always loved
doing ever since I was a kid was go
to the movies. Just the smell of the
popcorn and that exciting time
when the lights dim, you just
know you're in for wonder and
adventure.
It's something I haven't done
in a while, maybe because I:
watch most of my movies at
home now. HD television
has made . the picture quali-
ty of movies . great. for
home viewing.
It just isn't the same as going into
a packed theatre with friends to par-
take itt a social event. You may not
talk for the whole movie, but • when
it's over, it's up for discussion. Was
itood? Was it bad?
g
I usually pick apart most of the
movies. I like to take an analytical
look at most of the movies I watch.
L love all of the nuances of film,
from the story to how the film was
shot and the best way to see all of
the intricacy of the film, is to see it
on the big screen.
It's also 'a forrn of escapism and
it's always nice to get away from
your thoughts once and awhile and
immerse oneself in the lives up on
the movie screen.
With, today's economy its a
cheap way to get away for a
mini vacation of sorts and
enjoy an afternoon or evening
withfamily and friends.
One: of my earliest mem-
ories of childhood is seeing
E.T. in 'the theatre when I
was very young. 1 remem-
ber it scared : me when they
came to take .=E.T. away, but it was
also a thrilling experience at the
same time.
Ever since ,that time I have loved
going to the movies, <I even get a
kick out of the previa because previews - ause it
gives me .a taste of what is to come.
I just want to go out to the movies
more is basically ' what I'ii' saying
and I think people.$ who enjoy
movies should get off their couches
and experience ; how movies were
intended to be watched.
In a theatre, : with a big screen and
sticky floors.

Dear Editor,
This is a message that I feel came to
me from God telling me that I was to
write on this subject. I :certainly had
not been thinking along this line so I
told Him He would have td gui je and
direct me so that I would
know what He wanted fine to o the
write.
thousands of children aredying each
day because they are starving and sick
as they lack food and medicine. We all
should be able to help them as I under-
stand the food situation is desperate in
manycountries.
• The Bible says in
Matthew 25:45 - 46 RSV
FAilor
God has given each of us
the health, strength, energy
and wisdom to earn money to feed our
children in this wonderful land we live
in. Should we not give some of it back
to him to feed his starving children as
many have no family to care for them?
We should all be able to help them by
donating money through Plan
International, World Vision or others.
I believe that the people who buy
lottery tickets would have a far greater
chance of receiving a return for their
money (perhaps not financially, but in
blessings from God) if they had given
their money to help children in other
countries. These blessings would far
outweigh any money they had spent
on lottery tickets. Trust him.
People spend millions of dollars
buying these lottery tickets when
"Then he will answer
DIM
them, `Truly, I say to
you, as you did it not to
one of the least of these, you did it not
to me.' And they will go away into
eternal punishment, but the righteous
into eternal life."
If you 'cannot afford toadopt a
child, just give what you spend each
week or month on lottery tickets. I
believe.. you will receive a blessing
from God who loves you and is with
you all the time. He is just waiting for
you to ask him for . his. guidance. He
can see and know that when you give,
you help to save a child's life and it
will make you feel good.
When you make a difference in
someone else's life, it makes a differ-
ence in yours.
Gordon Morrison,
God's messenger for this
