Last weekend was uneventful(again!!!!). Spent the rest of the week waiting for a feed of an essay that I was to try making. This meant a lot of internet time than the usual Tuesday-Friday visits.
Lacking any interesting movie at the movie channels on cable, I opted to rummage through my collection which I decided to leave when I left for Dubai. This was consisted of the movies from last year's Oscar's. And the movie of the day was "BABEL."
The story evolves on decisions we make which affects the life of the youth, not temporarily but permanently. It is so sad to think how the guardians' decisions change the life of the youth that depended on them. Adults are role models of the youth and they looked upon us to make decisions at their early age.
It was also clearly stated there that a lot of things that we overlooked might affect their lives forever. We get to be carefree a lot of times that we don't really take time to think how it's going to make or break their lives.
Access to a gun at an early age is not a thing to do. A child at play is a child at play. A gun is not a toy, whether it is made of plastic. It affects them physically and psychologically. This movie is a firm reminder of how we handle our responsibilities to the youth.
