Ticket to Paradise with George Clooney and Julia Roberts
That is not a bad trip, it does not really have to be paradise. I would love any cinematic journey with the duo. No wonder this was a must watch.

Note-7 Being genuinely Happy (For Someone)
I have a question. Are we always genuinely happy for someone els every single time we hear something good about them ? I don’t think any of us will show in public our unhappiness. We all show happiness. We congratulate them. We smile. We tell them how amazing it is that something nice and good has happened to them. But…..

Note-3 Romancing with the unimportance
When you try to write on a Sunday what comes to mind is Monday. It is not because one hates Sunday, but there is a part of you that is preparing yourself for the next week.
