Night Of April 14-15Th 1912
Recently, i was opportuned to watch the movie Titanic again. With my kind of person, am kind of a bit emotional with things but if am to be questioned by anyone what my strongest part is, i will boldly tell the person that love movies doesn't freak me for it's just a movie and nothing more. But an exception is Titanic for it broke all barriers of my strogest tenet of my being through the song played in it...''my heart will go on'' by Celine Dion. I felt so down, not just because the story of Titanic is intended to be the record of a great disaster at sea, or its about the lover boy Jack and the lady Rose where by the carriage of thier love was hit by ice berg, rather it is a study in irony, probably the most terrible single illustration in marine history.
.
So, completely involved was the ship in what i can tag as the ''Web of Fate'', it depicts where true flavor of all fraternities of humanity reigned emotionally charged and supreme at all times.
In the middle of my reasoning, i discovered that the tale of Titanic is the best definition of true sacrifice being immortalized by human.
.
Looking at the movie critically, ever since the Titanic tragedy, many forms of art have spoken of the Titanic disaster commemorating the majesty of the vessel and remembering the lost lives on the night of April 14, 1912. Well the past is the past and the end of time can't be turned any more but with critical evaluation of its major theme, thus; LOVE, its tides will live again.
.
Looking at this from another perspective, in the world of today with her different forms of religious manners, cultures, traditions and the likes, if there is one thing i know is a universal ideology in us is LOVE, for i strongly believe we all love someone deep in our heart come what may.
.
Titanic on the otherhand, with the kind of love flaunted in this movie, i asked myself...DOES THIS KIND OF LOVE EXIST AGAIN? Cause with the being of my kind, i'm not sure if i can love to the extent of sacrificing myself for someone i met in couple of days. Well i'm not sure of what am capable of unless i find myself in one.
.
Now looking at the kind of love in Titanic, does such love exist in this contemporary World of ours. Some countries in the World for instance are engrossed with different kinds of love manners be it homosexual, bestiality and likes. Hmm, from another part love for money, love for rituals and all sorts.
.
Within the purview of this, the World and Titanic are two different entities but with careful examination of the two i believe something can be deduced. Firstly, Titanic is the ship where by thousands of passengers were, in link with the World. The World can be tagged as Titanic as well where by the passengers in the ship are the citizen in all nations.
.
Jack and Rose on the other hand are the replica of the kind of love they possessed. Thus, the World on her own with different people all with different kinds of love languages. The Titanic ship hit her doom which is the ice berg, which led to the begining of the destruction of the ship along side with the end reign of Jack and Rose. The World on the other hand hit her ice berg as well which is the replica of bad governance engrossed in the hearts of her leaders all over, there by leading to the chaos in countries along side the delays each citizens are facing bringing all to dearth zone.
.
Now the kind of love in Titanic can such still be felt in the heart of the leaders in the world? Where by they would love and at the sametime willing to sacrifice their lives for the betterment of others. Apart from the leaders, can such love still be felt in hearts of each individual to another? Can such be felt even in families, for how many parents can lay there lives for their kids? Among friends, can we? Hmm, i guess we all know how fast our hearts are beaten right now.
.
Jack died truly for Rose on a love based on days, but its not about how many days but rather within the days what kind of bond did they create? And mind you it wasnt jack alone who sacrificed but Rose almost in the process gave her life but all i discovered is that it wasnt her fate to do so and also all these they built together irrespective of their differences, be it religion, culture, tribe or influence.
.
My point is with the kind of life God has given to us, we are all in one TITANIC (Universe) with different tribes, cultures, religions and class. The questions is, why SEGREGATION in all of these? We are one big family on the same ATLANTIC OCEAN (Life's realities) driving each and everyone of us to our goals. The Titanic ship had a destination which was America, the world we are today will also get to her destination in which the gold will be shared according to our deeds.
.
In all, be it hausa, igbo or yoruba and even in the upper east side, we are all in one Titanic (Universe) irrespective of our differences. What we see ourselves as is what we produce. Let us all plant LOVE in our dealings and love, peace and unity will hold us. And with it, happiness will reign and peace will stand.
