a Somebody

to Somebody,

i just came back from catching Sharks Tale with the Chews...

So what did i see ?
a cornucopia of imagination swimming in the deep sea - and that's what i call a-life !

but here's the catch...
"nobody loves a Nobody,
everybody loves a Somebody." -Oscar

that's exactly what we're doing now - dedicating our lifes to be a Somebody.
So that ( one day )we can live in the upper reefs- Bigger cars, larger lawn... early retirement ?
And perhaps that's just the way we humans work - there must be a hidden temptation ( the middle tree in Eden eh? ) that drives us.. or in the words of Hen " Eh, who wanna study if scoring a string of As' makes u a Nobody?"

After Oscar made it Big, Ang the humbleton broke it to him that she loved him back then when he was a Nobody... she thought she saw a Somebody in him then.
That changed the whole course of mr. Somebody... all because Someone, someone who has seen him in his most nakedness moment -believed in him.
And there he goes...casting all his Somebodiness away to woo her back...

aunt J says that generally guys would love a girl that worships the very ground he steps on...no wonder my churchs' guys are going for girls much younger than they! ... whoopsie :)
Or through the eyes of a child:
" On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date. " -Mike, 10. :p

in short, u ain't something when u ain't Somebody...?! or we all need someone to believe in us...?

but suppose, if we have a Beholder who found a Somebody in us... would we pursue after him ? would we allow our Somebodiness to be define by him ?

" In desert land he found her, in a barren and howling waste. He shielded her and cared for her; he guarded her as the apple of his eye. "
Deut 32 : 10. Italics overwrite the original. It's... for Somebody.

Saying everybody's a somebody is like saying nobodoy's a somebody. -adapted from Dash, Incredibles
