Everyone it's on HBO Max! Thank you Tyler for sharing your thoughts. I hope to feel the same amount of intensity towards a movie as you do. For some reasons it's easier for books for me. I'm happy you saw color again.
Just WOW. Wow. Please keep sharing all that you do, in every way you do it, because you are color. You are light. You are inspiration and hope for so many, including me. Thank you for such an inspiring post. Sounds like it's movie night. Hugs to you, dear Tyler.
I love JVTV! For so many reasons. I often wave my hand over my head and say “braincloud”. As well as “I’m a flibbertigibbet” So many good lines but the overall message of living your life, just take the next step, see what happens. It’s great! Another movie that helps to get me out of my down days is Shirley Valentine. A bored housewife who talks to the wall. Until she decides to take a chance and go on holiday to Greece. Life changing!!! Thanks for sharing this piece of your life with us today. 🥰 Now I want to spend the day watching movies 😄
Whenever I feel overwhelmed (for years now) I ask my husband “What do you think Tom Hanks is doing right now?” And so begins what is often a hilarious, heartwarming story that never fails to bring comfort to my heart. Not too long ago you commented on my comment that You’ve Got Mail was my all-time favourite film that this was your favourite and I realized I had never seen it. (I know, I know!) I watched it that week and found it magical too.
Not long after in the dark late at night, curled up with my husband I asked him. “What do you think Tom Hanks...” and after a second he answered. “Getting ready to jump.” And a few seconds later, “We’ll see.” Now he says We’ll See to me often with a wink. It’s so true about life and so very beautiful. I love that there are more of us in this world who aren’t asleep to how big it is.
Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable story with us today, Tyler. You have such a beautiful heart - I’m not arguing that with you!!!! ;)
Oh my sweet Tyler, thank you! Thank you for sharing this story. I felt so much of your pain and love and compassion and fear and hope coming through your words. There are so many people who have no problem talking about their struggles, and while I am a very open person, there has been much of my own struggle I don't talk about. With anyone. Hearing these words of yours shows me that I can, if I choose to, share my story with my closest tribe of people. Someday. ;) But every. single. day. I am very thankful for my life and what I have already overcome to get me where I am today - a much happier, content, loving, capable woman. Thank you Tyler!
I need to see this movie! I saw all the Tom Hanks /Meg Ryan movies when they came out but somehow missed this one. By the end of today’s Sunday Edition, I felt like you were speaking into my soul, encouraging me/us, as always, to look for “the life that exists right beyond that leap....a life worth thanking the moon for”. One of your poems that I love is the one that begins, “Salvation lies in the strangest of places...” and my favourite part is the ending: “Do not fear the fall when it is the leaping that will set you free.” After listening today, I wondered if this poem is related to the idea of jumping from the movie that you honor with your shin tattoos, and if so, if you wrote this around the time you started ‘trying’ again or much later.
This essay is gorgeous!! I am adding that movie to my watchlist right now. That sounds exactly like I movie I would LOVE. I definitely agree with all the sentiments and bits of wisdom. I have become quite the realist over the years, but I still have never given up the hope, the thought that life is magic and fairytales are 100% real. They don't play out as neatly as they do in movies, but they do occur if you're paying attention. So much magic exists - especially at night and especially in the moon! I find myself looking to the moon just about every night it's within my view. I've written poetry about it, felt the energy from it, and found comfort in the mystery of it. There is so much wonder in this universe, and we will find it when we surrender to it.
THANK YOU … to the moon and back! This Signal Fire left an inspiring, all warming and energetic flame in every bit of my being. ❤️
Seconded. With tears leaking out my eyes.
Bro! The “like” button does not do justice to the words I just read and the emotion I just felt from you...
The Moon is a powerful thing drawing eyes and hearts and minds to the places of dreams...if we would only heed the call...
I am seeking a copy of this film today to rewatch with a renewed set of eyes and ears.
Thank you Tyler! 🙏🏼 🌙 ❤️🔥

This was entirely lovely and brought many huge smiles to my face while listening. Thank you for sharing, and for reminding. I forgot how big ♥️
