I had a dream you called me back,

But it was just a nightmare.

Past Lives...

Someone I know had recently reminded me of this Absolutely Wonderful movie, “Defending Your Life”, starring Albert Brooks & Meryl Streep. I used to watch this on the movie channel way back when I was younger and I have always enjoyed it.

Although many people have different opinions & beliefs (as we are all entitled to have in our amazing country; Thank You Freedom-of-Religion) - I do believe in the notion of transcending one’s overall path of life through a series of important spiritual lessons (that do eventually lead to an afterlife). I do believe in Heaven. I do believe in good people being rewarded, here & now, as well as in ‘the great beyond.’

Anywho, this movie is very sweet & tickles the mind. Albeit I believe the act of going into the afterlife to be instantaneous without any form of material-world-due-process (like seen in this story). No buffering...no loading... just a quick, straight-forward & very overwhelming spiritual process (not to like make anyone squirm or anything). Anywho-zzle - I highly recommend watching this some time - it’s a very good movie and hopefully it will give ya some good vibes.

I didn’t get around to making this when Rip Torn recently passed, but here’s my tribute. Hopefully he’s moved on. #riptorn #defendingyourlife #bobdiamond #albertbrooks https://www.instagram.com/p/B0g2g06h7Xk/?igshid=x6vmu5afgvyx
