Hope...

Okay, So I thought I was done blogging for the night.. But I was wrong.. I can't forget about how my favorite actress was done wrong.. The crazy part is, I keep thinking how what she is going through right now is similar to the part she played in a movie.. My fave Movie, "Hope Floats". If you don't know It let me break it down for you.
She was married with a daughter, and her husband had an affair and she moved out.. Then they got divorced..
Crazy thing is the part at the beginning of the movie , is when she gets told on national tv that he was having an affair with her best friend.. Ironic.. In the movie, she can't get over how he humiliated her on tv, for the whole world to see it..

 She is so angry, and broken inside, she returns to her mothers house.. She can't seem to forget and she is still so hurt.. She loved him so much, and would have done anything to stay..

Her mom being a  mom, kept pushing her to move on.. See there is always something, and she was just as beautiful as the day she left.. She thought it was her fault, and that she had lost that spark. Reluctant, she didn't want to talk to this guy, who was in love with her since she was younger.. Her first kiss and everything was her husband..

Slowly, and after her mom passes.. Her husband comes back to say he wants a divorce and she finally realizes.. He is not coming back for her, and he wasn't what she wanted anyways..

Childhood is what you spend the rest of your life trying to overcome. That's what momma always says. She says that beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most. Try to remember that when you find yourself at a new beginning. Just give hope a chance to float up. And it will...

Although when you are in pain, and someone does you wrong. You feel like you are under water, and sometimes you can't breathe .. But you also see that glimpse of hope, that solace under water. That makes you push yourself to the top..

Every struggle, every painful situation, brings out something inside you.. A new understanding, and new wishes, and hopes, and dreams...

I thought it was crazy though, the part she played in a gorgeous movie.. Is soo similar to her reality, and her actions are quite similar.. :)

Menger Hotel In SA

MMkay.. So I have been pretty interested in the Menger for a long time..Located here in San Antonio, and not far from where I live and lay my head. lol.. I have been there multiple times, and I love going there.. The history alone, is so amazing.. When you walk in the door, you think about  the hotels history.. Thinking oh wow, Babe Ruth could have been standing in this very spot, using this phone booth.. Which when you walk in the door, you feel like you take a walk back in time, and everything has been so well kept..  Walking around, you just can't help but be happy. Even though they say It is haunted, the beauty of the hotel has you definitely mesmerized..

The Bar, is amazing looking, you just want to stay there for a while and have a few.. Teddy Roosevelt, used to sit at the bar and as cowboys would walk in, he would offer them a drink..

 In the lobby, they say the piano plays by itself.. I didn't till I walked by and saw the pedals moving on there own.. I am still sure there has to be some technological reason for it.. lol.. Although, I'm told nope not true.. The court yard is so pretty and, you feel like your in a secret garden. It's nice to think about, you enjoying the same area Greats enjoyed as well.. Amazing feeling..

When asked, the staff gives you the documentation of things that have happened there.. But , they say the ghosts are friendly, and don't seem to mind sharing with the living.. But still, I have stayed there once.. But I stayed in the newer part of the hotel, so nothing really happened to me.. But yet, I am the one who always finds reasoning for something weird happening.. lol.. My sister kept on having me go to the potty with her.. They say most of the activity happens in the older part, which is where the Greats would stay..
