Movie Review - Bruce Almighty ~ directed by Tom Shadyac

A GODly image?

I’ve become best friends with my mop?

Disliking housework 

since knee-high to a grasshopper!

Avoiding housework, 

willing to pay the cost of being chastised.

But one special character in this 

friendly, funny movie had an interesting impact.

Not the star ~ but the co-star

made in God’s image

both on earth and in the movie.

His portrayal 

real and right now.

With mop in hand,

he just cleaned the floor and made things bright.

Easy and slow.

Just being the miracle

with a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his brow.

If that’s all housework is ~

I can do that!

p.s. The movie? ~  
Bruce Almighty with Jim Carrey and Morgan Freeman

Confession time (August 2012):

Doing the dishes I am good at.

Keeping things tidy - not too bad

Dusting and mopping - well, I still need a bit of work!

“Housework is work directly opposed to

the possibility of human self-actualization.”
