How late is it? How long have we been sitting here? I look at my watch – three thirty and the day is almost ending. It’s October.

All I know is that I have two choices – stay wrapped in blankets and get on with dying, or get the list back together and get on with living.

In choosing to practice unconditional gratitude you are choosing to trust the process, to honor your feelings and to place your faith in an outcome of inevitable grace.

When we wrapped Resident Evil, we were a 3D movie, but it was no big deal. And then, Avatar came out and the whole of Hollywood was like, "Look at these grosses! 3D is huge. Let's all be 3D!"
