If one has ever had the honor of watching Disney's "Angels inthe Outfield," starring Danny Glover, one has been trulyinspired. The story centers around two, foster children whom areendlessly hoping for a home to call their own. In the film, theolder child, Roger pleads with his deadbeat dad to take himback. The father brushes his son off with a taunting response,"....you can live with me when the Angels win the Penant..."Roger, excitedly goes home and prays to God for the baseballteam (the Angels) to win the Penant. He and his little fosterfreind, "JB," attend an Angels' game where suddenly, Rogerbegins seeing real angels in the outfield. Remarkably, thecoach, "George Knox," played by Danny Glover grows close to thetwo foster children as Roger helps him develop his team (by theangels he sees on the playing diamond). As time progresses andthe "Angels" begin a winning streak toward the Penant, Roger'sdad relinquishes total custody of his son to the state andleaves the child feeling more abandoned than ever. However, Coach Knox's hardened personality is softened by thetwo boys. Eventually, he adopts the two comrades and the Angelsdo win the Penant. The story, although fictional, has an important moral for all tofollow. Sometimes, even our most profound hopes, desires andwishes do not always come to us the way we would expect them to.We pray, meditate and dream about anticipated outcomes -- andwhen we don't get the results we want, we automatically assumethat all hope is lost or abandoned. In all actuality, sometimes,the things we want the most in life don't always happen in themanner which we wish them to occur. But somehow, a Higher Forcealways throws us a life preserve and pulls us from our drowningpools. You see, life isn't always about getting what wedesire...it is about desiring what we do get, and acceptingoutcomes that are sometimes -- meant to be. Words to ponder. Until then, take a break from life's parols and watch "Angels inthe Outfield." It will give you a whole new perspective on life. ©2003 - All Rights Reserved Morals to Live By C.
