What If You Had a Universal Remote Control … That Controlled Your Universe?

Would you want it?

Oh come on, don’t be shy. Take it. IT’S FREE!

Well, for those of you who’ve watched “Click” starring talented comedian, Adam Sandler, you’ll definitely understand what I’m going to share below. For those who don’t, I beg you to watch. BEG …. *down on my feet*. Please don’t miss sucha great movie. Yeah, I know Adam Sandler’s shows tend to be crappy but trust me it always has meaning behind it and this time it is showcased brilliantly. So, please watch. If you still don’t like it … hmmm … I’ll see if I can get a Universal Remote Control, and I’ll record your life instead. (Joking la ….)

I’ve watched this show 2 weeks ago. I remembered I’m begging my friends to watch with me but last minute, almost no one could make it. I seriously determined to watch it myself till one of my friend came to the rescue. :D …. *Thank you very much for that*

I’ve heard lots of good review from people who’ve watched it. Most of them said,”It is very meaningful.” But I’ve also read bad reviews from magazine and newspaper, saying it’s another slapsticks comedy with no substance. BLA BLA BLA.

Guess what, the moment I saw the preview even before anybody has watched the show, I know I’m in for a good ride. When “The One Up There” kinda theme is involved, normally the show can’t go too wrong. Though it’s stupid, it’ll still try to convey a message that’s more profound than eyes can normally grasp. (OK OK, let me be humble. I just like stupid show. I even like Spongebob Squarepants! Oooppps…..)

So, I began my journey with Adam who’s an architect who thought life will be better when he got his promotion. He neglected his family and put all his heart into his work, thinking when my work has stabilized, I’ll have more time for my family. (How many of you can relate to that? I sure can.) The Almighty heard his cries when his works were so overwhelming and gave him a Universal Remote Control that could make him go back to the past, fast forward the unpleasant part of his life, stop the time, and can even turn on TV, fan, etc. What a bargain.

I’ll not reveal too much what happens in the movie as I understand some of you will choose to watch it and experience it yourself. But what I’d like to draw out from the movies for those who plan not to watch it is that, Life is not just passing by and getting to the final destination. But it’s every moment and every second of it that really count. Yeah, some of the moments are not pleasant … (may be I’m being too nice to use the word “pleasant”) let me re-write … some of the moments are just CRAP. It can be painful, humiliating, disappointing, terrifying, killing … you name it. But, living it and giving it 400% of what you’ve got by even just experiencing it and brace it, will make you grow 800% more. Cry to the maximum. Fail to the maximum. Enjoy to the maximum too. When everything has passed, then you look back or look down or look from wherever you want, you can proudly tell yourself,” I’ve given my very best and I lived with no regrets” (Eh! I suddenly sound like William Hung (the Fallen American Idol who sang “She Bangs”. Look what happened when he too has given his best. Think he made more $$ than some of the top 20 idols.)

Life is indeed beautiful, with or without its make-up on. J Live it awakened!
