Life IS like the movies

People say that life's not like the movies.
In many ways I one hundred percent agree with that statement. Everything is glamourised in movies. Love, drugs, hapiness, sadness, broken hearts and boring everyday activities. 

A part of me though, disagrees. Although there is a lot of glamourisation in movies, the stories are real. In both there is sadness, there is perfect moments, there is laughter, there is love, there is broken hearts and there is drugs. 
The thing about movies being like real life that I don't think people pick up is that most of it is the journey. You get a few perfect moments (that's the end of the movie), but the rest is the journey. The sadness and the tears are the bulk of our lives, just like they're the bulk of the movie. 

We spend our time trying to solve/remove the problem that is causing our sadness so we can just have hapiness. The thing is, this happiness is only brief, just like it is in the movies... And then there's a new problem that needs solving and takes a large amount of our time and our reward is a moment of hapiness.

I believe our lives are based around these moments (even if few) and hopefully the more problems we solve the more moments we get.

That's just my theory, that the stories in the movies we watch aren't that far off from the stories of our own lives.
It's just something to ponder over next time you watch your favourite movie.
