Movies i’ve watchedand what they taught me

#favorite movies #moviestowatch

Ik some of these options are controversial due to religious preference but i will say if you do not agree with me that’s totally fine these are js a few of my favs !

2/9 Edited to

... Read moreWatching movies has always been more than just entertainment for me; it’s been a profound source of personal growth and insight. Each film in my favorite list offers a unique lesson that resonates deeply with real-life experiences. Take "The Greatest Showman," for instance, which teaches the importance of bravery and embracing who you truly are despite challenges and criticisms. Its message inspired me to pursue my passions more fearlessly. Similarly, "To the Bone" opened my eyes to the painful reality of eating disorders, showing that recovery, though difficult, is always possible with support and determination. Another film, "13 Reasons Why," highlights the silent battles many face, reminding me to be more empathetic toward those around me, as you never know the struggles behind a smile. Meanwhile, "Wonder" beautifully advocates for kindness and acceptance, encouraging me to be more understanding toward people’s differences. Religious themes in movies like "Fools Rush In" and "Miracles from Heaven" can be controversial, but they offer comforting perspectives about faith and the belief that everything has a purpose, which can be very reassuring during difficult times. Romantic movies such as "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" and "After" share insights about love’s complexities, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability and finding the right person rather than settling. Overall, these movies blend entertainment with valuable life lessons that inspired me to stay true to myself, care for others, and face life’s hurdles with courage and hope. They’re not just films but reminders of the strength we can all find within ourselves.

The 800 credit score I lost and what it taught me🍋
I used to think having an 800 credit score meant I was financially stable. Turns out, it just meant I was really good at paying on time. What I didn’t realize was that good credit doesn’t protect you from financial stress: savings do. And when 2019 hit, I learned that lesson the hard way. I
