Chasing a broken dream with good faith

*awwwwwww* a happy ending for Chase... It's beautiful... one of those really special & personal moments that you can snuggle up to, when you shut the world off & slips into that little comfort zone, where time stops, & you live an eternity. *snooze*

Oh, next episode's gonna be interesting. The mother of all teen dramas; falling in love with your best friend's gf. Will it turn all nasty? How could he have done this in the 1st place? Just when Gabriel managed to nurture a close relationship with Ellie, & this gay lover who has been in a totally different part of the story, walks in & says "excuse me"? Lol, definitely watchable. David & Ellie together can definitely do a spin-off of "Achar pt. 2", haha...

Aren't they cute puppies? *^.^*

Ok, i confess... i like this short series a lot though it has low profile, stage-style acting & all too perfect actors & actresses. Maybe that's why i like it. It's got a feeling of a short story that you like reading come to life.

Then i watched True Courage, the concluding episode. I've been wanting to watch this episode since i saw its preview. On paper, it may seem just another GP essay question on morality of abortion. However, putting it into perspective of a real-life event & looking at it with your heart, it is a chapter in life with much to learn & reflect. It's about a mother whose mammogram scan diagnosed that her unborn baby has bodily defects. He has an unusual skull, & his fingers & toes look fused together. Looking at the events folding out, it is very heartbreaking, knowing that this being of a beating heart can constantly be felt within the mother, the closest thing that she ever has, her proudest & happiest baby, suddenly all shattered because he is imperfect. How can you bring yourself to accept the truth? You still love him as much & he is the most ever important thing you ever wish to have, but now he has physical defects. How would you bring yourself to accept it? Would you want to turn him into a memory & let it all fade away? Would it be more cruel to have him born & taste the bitterness of a handicapped life?

Love is an act that shows your attachment to someone, to show concern & willingness to protect one from harm. A love for the baby does not mean a decision on his right to live, but a pledge to care for him forever from the day he is born. One will never kill someone he loves, for any reason there may be. & this is a statement of faith, to put the ones you love on the same level of trust as you. A baby may not be able to read or talk, but he can understand & learn your emotions. You trust that he understands why you have born him into this world of suffering, & will one day come to be grateful. This is the unconditional faith that will help overcome times of dilemna.

Although I am a free thinker, I have come to understand the need of faith as a basic human trust, regardless of your religion, but simply the fact that you are alive. Religion is a medium that helps you keep the faith you have found, so you will never be lost, & will always find people of the same faith around you. Although i have no religion, i am realising the ways of life each & every day, & understanding why people need a religion to survive.
