Sandpoint Movie Review - "It's a Wonderful Life"

I found it fascinating you haven't seen this before.  I must have seen it a dozen times as a kid. 

I had not seen the movie until this year Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint , I've now seen it twice on television and a Christmas play at the church.  :)

Mark, ever since I saw it the first time, this movie has been one of my favorites. It is old, but stands the test of time.

Good morning Mark. It has been a couple of years since I saw the movie the last time, but never get tired of that classic.

I have seen the movie. It's OK. I'm glad you liked it. I do, too, at the holidays. You know it's great you helpled someone else out. It speaks volumes about who you are. Keep doing what you are doing. 

I recently watched it's a Wonderful Life again.  I have to say this year it was different for me,  I found myself engrossed in the story in a way that was different from years past.  I was reminded how easy it is for some to be persuaded to let those with ulterior motives bail them out of trouble for a moment and then find they have given away all they needed for the future. I pondered this as I thought about my giving to others.  Is it for them or for me? How will my act of kindness help them in the future?  Will it lift them to a new plateau or keep them from reaching their goals?

The answer is that my gifts are based upon their well being and to my knowledge will never be acknowledged.  My hope is that someway they will be able to do the same for someone else.  My belief is that when you do the right thing, you have done the right thing.  Faith, Hope, and Actions...hmmm maybe I am a little bit like George!   Merry Christmas Mark!

Mark, It's a Wonderful Life is one of my favorites.  During those holiday times when I've felt a little, well, whiney, it's been a great cure.  Go Jimmy!
