Up

Today, as part of our work Christmas present, our administrator took us to see "Up". I had not seen the movie, but I heard it was good, and it was, really good. Lots of life lessons in this movie and be warned, it will make you cry.
The beginning of the movie starts out showing this little boy and girl who meet and grow up and get married. They both are into adventure and love each other dearly. They grow old together and she dies. The old man is left alone, in this house they had since the day they married, and he is lonely. He then goes on an adventure, in his house, with this little boy, and he learns to be happy again. I think one of the most important things I took out of it was that you don't need to have possessions to be happy, those are just things, in the end it's all the memories that you can always take with you. I enjoy reminiscing of different things in my life, like things we did while growing up, and even memories of Jeremy and I.
One thing I really enjoy about going home to visit my family, we always talk about the good times we had and talk about different memories we all had while growing up. It's so much fun, and so amazing how everyone has different events that were significant to them.
If you haven't seen this movie, I highly recommend it!
