A Star Is Born

A line in the dialogue about music says, “There are twelve notes and then the octave.  Then it starts over.  It is what you do with the notes.”  The song comes from what you do with the notes.  And it must come from your soul, from who you really are, not from who someone wants to make you so that you can be popular or rich or famous.  This was Jack’s (Bradley Cooper) way of writing songs.  Twelve notes is like twelve steps of recovery. There are twelve.  When you get to the end, you start over.  What you do with the Twelve Steps, how you put them together will decide if your soul will sing the true melody of who God made you to be.  Being an alcoholic, a drug addict, a screw up, is not all that is there.  You saw that in Jack.  Alle did too.  Several months in rehab is only the start.  There really is never an ending to working on the song of who we truly are deep down.  Oh, and bring the tissue if you go to see this movie.  I was a mess at the end.
