The final straw…

by Lori

I know to all you smart intelligent people out there, this is going to be a “no duh” situation. I like movies, I like to watch movies, I like to go to movies, they are a good pastime. Since manly man and I had kids our chances to go to movies were diminished greatly. We would rent when a movie we really wanted to watch comes out, and also we have Direc*tv. I dreamed of the time manly man and I could get back to place of going out to dinner and catch a movie. We have so many fond memories of doing that while dating.

Well unfortunately, I am going to have to find a new fun pastime. We had the chance to go out to dinner and see a movie last night. I am not going to tell you what new released movie we saw, but it really opened my eyes to the times. I felt like I needed a shower after watching this so called “comedy” it was so dirty, I was disgusted. Now I know I am going to get comments like “that is why we don’t go see movies, or our family doesn’t do that” and for that I applaud you but like I said, I personally like to watch me a good movie. What movies call funny, and what they show on the big screen is just down right disgusting. About half way through I pretty much kept my head down. I know you are going to ask, why didn’t I walk out? For that I have no answer, I should have. But let me tell you the minute I walked out I was praying and asking forgiveness and telling myself, I won’t be going to any more movies anytime soon unless I KNOW it is one I want to see, and I know what to expect.

I am so careful about what my kids watch, I research etc… but as an adult I did not. Well I am officially saying here publicly I have learned my lesson.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
