Let's go to the movies! :-) I first wrote this piece ages ago. Today, I revisit and repost it—with a little help from Artificial Intelligence! :-)

Love is strength — not defeat. It's fighting through darkness, not giving in to it. It’s choosing life, healing, and hope. That’s what true courage looks like.

Movies that portray suicide as an expression of love send the wrong message. Our youth need stories that inspire resilience, bravery, and emotional courage — stories that remind them that every battle is worth fighting.

Film producers have the power to shape minds. Use that power to build warriors of spirit — not to make them feel helpless. Because love is not surrender. Love is defiance, hope, and the unbreakable will to live.
