what if

for just one brief moment in ur life u could go back into the past and re-live a specific moment that brought joy into ur life.. what would it be?

i borrowed AI: Artificial Intelligence and cried properly for the first time in my life in front of a movie.. ok Finding Neverland did provoke me to almost tear but i held them back "somehow".. but this time i really wanted to cry esp when the "aliens" - i really dun know what those things that look like ppl shaped out of glass but aren't really living ppl, are called - tell David that he would be able to see his mother again after 2000 years but only for one single day.. that was such an emotional moment.. and of coz later one of them telling David abt the special gift of life in humans which sets them apart from anything else - the price of mortality... i knows it prob sounds contradictory to the gift of salvation and eternal life but i just don't know why but it's quite an impressive way of thinking..

remember in Troy, when Achilles told the girl that the gods were jealous of man because they were mortal and they knew that every moment was priceless and worth living for..

sorry if it sounds a bit non-biblical..

anyway, AI isn't ur usual science-fiction movie.. in fact i think it's leaning towards fantasy, like Finding Neverland, Peter Pan or Pinocchio.. next i'm gonna get Bicentennial Man and cry my eyes out over the movie's passage of time.. anyway gtg and study a bit of Genetics b4 Easter Camp.. and meeting up with Kirsten to finalize game plans..

p/s moment in my past life i wouldn't mind re-living? prob the first 6 months of 2004 with Jess.. or last yr of high school.. but no that's too long.. it has to be an extraordinarily special moment in ur life.. kinda like David's - AI one - first and only birthday party..
