I watched the movie Sliding Doors tonight and it just reminded me a lot about my previous blogs pertaining to how God will always be the ultimate decider in our futures. I guess it seems like I have a sort of predestination theme maybe. Anyway, the film is kind of about the butterfly effect where one tiny occurrence can change a person’s life completely. In the film, one woman’s life branches when she either makes or misses the subway. In one life, she caught her boyfriend of two and a half years cheating on her and in the other, she misses it. In both lives, she experiences similarities. For example, she finds out that her boyfriend has cheated on her, that she becomes pregnant and due to a misfortunate event, loses the baby. Even though she dies in one, the other ends up taking on aspects of the life she finished living.
I really enjoyed the movie and it just seemed to go on with the theme that God knows what’s already in store for us because he is omnipotent. I think it’s interesting how I have seemed to pick on this theme for a few of my blogs even though I am not very Christian oriented, but rather agnostic. Even so, I really liked the concept and so thought that because it was present in a few films that I should touch on it.
