I am very happy today because I have finally received my Cinema Paradiso DVDs. Aside from Roman Holiday, A Room With A View, Cinema Paradiso is one of the best movies I have ever seen and I felt in love with this movie the very first time I saw it years ago.
I love the music of this movie, which was written by Ennio Morricone, who also wrote the music for The Mission. Years later, Josh Groban sang Cinema Paradiso on his CD. I would cry just listening to its music because it touches my heart every time I hear it.

Several years ago, I saw the director’s cut of Cinema Paradiso in Berkeley with an old friend. This is one of those movies that I can watch it again and again and I willl never get tired of it because it was so well made and so filled with love. It is most definitely a timeless must see movie and I would tell everyone to see it.
In addition to my Cinema Paradiso DVDs, I also received a new book - When People are Big and God is small by Edward T. Welch. I was assigned to read this book by my counselor. In addition to reading the Bible, this book has been very helpful in revealing some of my intentionally hidden sins and some sins that I am not aware of.
My counseling sessions have been eye opening and brightening and I definitely feel that God is fine-tuning me right now. Through prayers and reading His Word, God is revealing to me some very hideous stuff hidden inside of me and He is removing them one by one. I once shared with a sister that I feel like an erupting volcano right now because I feel that God is forcing out my sinful/ugly stuff, just like how He forces lava out from under the crust of the earth.
He is changing me. God is good, all the time.
