I'm not the type of guy who celebrates the Valentine's Day. I think it's too commercialized and not necessarily meaningful for my wife and me as we have our anniversaries to embrace.Anyhow, I did a little planning this year because I received some signals from my the other half that I ought to be more romantic and less against the world. I thought she is right. So I did. The flower, the card, the dinner and surprises. But it didn't go on as well as I thought. We had a little argument over a little thing after the dinner on this so-called the loving night. Well, the Bible had said it,"In his heart a man plan his course, but the Lord determines his steps."-Proverbs 16:9. I must be a bad Valentine's Day planner I guess.
So we were on the verge of giving up the midnight movie which I've bought the tickets earlier, the first time I did that. But thank God, we were still managed to show up at the theater on time. The film is inspired by the 1921 short story of the same name written by F. Scott Fitzgerald (also the author of The Great Gatsby), it is about a man who starts aging backwards with bizarre consequences. In simple words, all human being will grow old, but what if there is one of us who grows young?
There it goes an inspiring black humor movie, reminding us to live life to its fullest, because in either way, still, those from dust will go back to dust.
At the end, my wife and I walked out of the cinema holding each other's hands - As Benjamin said,"You never know what's coming for you."
