Driving Around and Thinking
Did you see that movie "Pretty in Pink" directed by John Hughes starring Molly Ringwald? It was a great film and one of my favorites when I was a teenager. Who couldn't relate to that girl? She was so cool. She was poor, but she had a part-time job. She was the daughter of an alcoholic father who was still nursing a broken heart over her mother who left them years ago. Since her father doesn't hold a job, she can't afford all the expensive clothes that she sees many of the "popular" girls wearing, so she makes her own out of cheap and used material and creates her own style. She tolerates the peers that make fun of her. Although she doesn't have any cheerleaders telling her to do well in school, she wants to be successful in life so she makes her education important and disciplines herself to achieve excellent marks. She's a role model for any teens who feel lost and alone and not sure what to do at the doorway to adulthood. I loved that movie. I mention it now because there was one specific scene that seems to deja-vu through my mind as I begin the second half of my life. The scene where she is sitting in her cute little pink car and staring at the "richies" houses. "I wonder if they know how amazing their house is?" she asks her friend. Thirty-three years have passed since I graduated from high school. I've had many jobs, many cars, and seen many cities and towns. Yet whenever I see a house that I think is charming and beautiful, I park and pause for a moment and ask the same thing - "I wonder if they know how amazing their house is?"
