We watched the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajamas tonight.
Oh my.
Have you seen this? It was incredibly thoughtful and thought provoking and definitely a tear jerker.
It was one of those movies that made me almost ashamed to be part of the same human race. I'm not sure if that is a weird emotion but that's how I felt.
I won't give it away if you're going to watch it but to witness the horror of the Holocaust through the life of the eight year old son of a high ranking nazi official.
If you have not seen this try to. Buy kleenex. Prepare to think too much.
But there is a message there that we must all remember.
Be kind to everyone please. There is so much pain in the world.
(you're surprised aren't you? You thought I was going to be smart-ass but, really, I have a deep sensitive side as well ... sigh....)
