Saw the movie on Saturday night. The Henry Poole character is sad and lonely, without faith, and gives off the stench of death. Yet, he is surrounded by the happy and the connected, the faithful, and those embracing life. A central character to the story is named Esperanza (español for hope); another is Patience. The story is about the miraculous;  but the miracles are the by-product of hope and patience within human relationships. The face of God can be found within each of us, discovering it in a water-stain on a stucco wall only served to remind us of that. The miraculous transformation occurs for Henry when he discovers that his life (his legacy) is defined no longer in his sad past or his unknown future, but the “is here” of a water balloon fight, a candlelight dinner, his relationships in the now.
