Watching The Legend of Bagger Vance today.  Ever get the impression there are messages meant just for you.  Wisdom waiting to be imparted.  Clues to be uncovered.  Divinity to bask in.  If only you'll open your heart to it?  Here was mine today:

In this movie Junuh is the lost soul, wallowing in the sorrows of yesterday, unsure how he managed to stumble into the seeming pit of today, oblivious to whether it's even possible to climb out, or if he's doomed to an eternity of the misery that comes from spinning ones wheels.  He's lost, he's alone, and he's in need of a salvation he cannot comprehend.  Bagger Vance is, quite simply, the provider of that salvation.  He is Junuh's God.

BV:  What I'm talkin' about is a game… A game that can't be won, only played.

Junuh:  You don't understand.

BV:  I don't need to understand… Ain't a soul on this entire earth ain't got a burden to carry he don't understand.  You ain't alone in that…  But you been carryin' this one long enough.  Time to go on… lay it down…

Junuh:  I don't know how…

BV:  You got a choice.  You can stop… Or you can start…

Junuh:  Start?

BV:  Walkin'

Junuh:  Where?

BV:  Right back to where you always been… and then stand there… Still… real still… and remember…

Junuh:  It's too long ago…

BV:  Oh no sir, it was just a moment ago… Time for you to come on out of the shadows Junuh… Time for you to choose…

Junuh:  I can't…

BV:  Yes, you can… but you ain't alone… I'm right here with you… I've been here all along… Now play the game… Your game… The one that only you was meant to play… The one that was given to you when you come into this world… You ready?  Don't hold nothing back… give it everything… Now's the time… Let yourself remember… That's right, Junuh, settle yourself.  Let's go… It's your time, Junuh
