Great Movie: Unknown White Male

Saw a great movie. A documentary from Netflix called Unknown White Male.


It is the story of a man who lost his memory at age 30 and how his life proceeds for the next couple of years from there.


There are some incredible demonstrations of just how much we live a story of our lives rather than just living our lives. The parts we are given, the parts we take on in the "play" take over.


What if we were to just lose the script and had to live each day as it came to us?


This movie comes as close to showing what that might be like as without having to experience it ourselves.


Or, if we're really into being present for each moment with what has been described as continued freshness of appreciation, perhaps it would be more accurate to say "able to experience it."


Certainly would pump some new life into our relationships.

Eckhart Tolle - The Power of Now - relationship resource

Just had a friend tell me that I was ignorant of a major source of excellent information and support in the area of mindfulness would fit right in with my website, www.better-relationships-over-50.com and it's mindfulness meditation page.

A quick trip to Barnes & Noble and a skimming of The Power of Now makes me both happy to have found this and embarrassed that it took me this long.

Haven't had time to study it, but it looks very good and may "make the penny drop" for some people who don't quite "click" with Michael Brown's Presence Process. I am still a Brown fan, but this looks like a good addition.

Any comments on either or both would be appreciated.
