It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. Time Out #285 is an "Inspired By" Challenge where we are challenged to be inspired by a favorite movie for our projects. There are so many movies that I love, but "It's a Wonderful Life" really IS my favorite.
Strange, isn’t it? Each person’s life touches so many other lives . –Clarence the Angel
The photo above is from the moment in the movie where Clarence the angel, gets his wings. Clarence saved George, a bell just rang and George knows what has just happened. I changed a word in the sentiment, which is a famous quote from the movie, from "his" to "their". The reason for that is that now this quote always brings to mind the morning my mother took her last breath. My sisters and I were with her. The moment she passed, the fire alarm started blaring. We all started to laugh really hard because we all had the same thought. Surely, my beautiful mother got her wings at that moment, so I had to change the pronoun on the quote to include her and Clarence at the same time. If you know that movie, you know my card is self explanatory.
