Avatar

This afternoon, my wonderful boyfriend took me out to see a movie. Not just any movie, but the amazing Avatar. And not just the amazing Avatar. We saw it in 3-D.

Oh. My. Goodness!!!!

It was incredible. The cinematography, the special, effects, the story line, all of it was incredible. But this you already know.

The story is centralized around a planet called Pandora, in which the most incredible landscapes exist. There is an indigenous tribe known as the Na'Vi that live and protect this world. Pandora is a wild planet, made up of incomparable beauty. The forests have enormous trees, the mountains float, and the oceans are vast.

But I'm sure you already know this.

So, whats the point of this post?

To put a thought out there. Do you ever wish stuff like that was real? That we could somehow be transported to a different world where everything is beauty and simplicity? Where the cleaness of the air keeps us wishing for more, and the quietness allows us to think with out interruption?

Wouldn't it be awesome to have a place where you could go where there is no sound other then nature surrounding you? A place where the beauty of nature reminds you why life is so worth living?

I know there are people out there who live in rural areas where this possible, but I'm a city girl, and we don't get much quiet around here. There is always a car, or a plane, or someone yelling, or just the sounds of other people living.

To be totally isolated, in God's perfect world, where I can hear my own thoughts, and have time to ponder them, would be something almost completely foreign to me.

So, do I wish Pandora was real? Absolutely. Do I know for a fact it isn't? Of course. But that doesn't mean I can't try to find the beauty, the simplicity, and the quiet that God has already placed on His green earth.
