In My Honest Opinion...the Fault In Our Stars

I recently saw The Fault In Our Stars. Let me just say, I did several things wrong prior to seeing this. First, I didn't read the book before seeing the movie which is a BIG no-no for me. I always read the book first, unless of course I lack the imagination to understand said book. Such was the case with the Harry Potter series. I so wanted to be a cool kid and talk about those books but I just couldn't do it. Second, I made the huge mistake of reading some of the reviews on said book and some of them were negative so I went with a less than positive attitude about the movie.

After seeing it, by myself I might add, this was the text I sent to my daughter before even leaving the theatre: You know that pain you get in your tonsil area and the stingy feeling you get in your nasal passage right before you start blubbering and snot is dripping profusely from your nose and then you get the hiccups from holding your breath so that you don't make a scene? Yeah, so I just did that. Now I have a headache from trying to hold it in!

Yep, it was that good! I am definately gonna go back and read the book! My lesson learned from this...everyone has an opinion, and that's ok. But remember, they are just that, opinions.  As I've said before, different things mean different things to different people. Don't become a victim of contempt prior to investigation. You never know what will light a spark within you so don't let someone else's opinion become your own. Learn to be you and LIKE that person!
