I suspected‚ after reading Megan Basham’s review (below)‚ that the filmThe Blind Side would be worth seeing.

When I watched it‚ I was taken by three impressive scenes. The first was a scene in which Sandra Bullock lies on her bed smiling after bringing Mike home with her. It’s a smile of content and of real happiness. It’s that kind of smile we draw on our faces when feeling satisfied and fulfilled with goodness. This is what real happiness is about; it’s not wealth
