I've been thinking a lot about the movie clip that we viewed today in class. It really hit home for me and made me think about how easy it is to be superficial about things. The family was perfectly happy before they stumbled upon the coke bottle. Once they had the coke bottle, problems arose because everyone wanted to use it and didn't want to share with the rest of the members. This one material item caused so many problems from unhappiness to jealously. We can all relate in some ways to the concepts presented in this film. It's so easy to forget about how many things you have and how blessed we all are in so many different ways. This movie reminded me of that.
