Did you ever see the movie "Up" ? This is a picture of Carl Fredrickson...see he really is a real person!!! In this movie, Carl realizes that the deepest and truest adventure in his life was not a trip to a faraway place but the joy of sharing his life and his dreams with Ellie (his late wife). He also comes to see that he has plenty to offer Russell (the little boy who does not have a dad in his life) and others.......such a great movie. I hope you enjoy the words below!!
Peace, Michele
