Why I Can Only Imagine Is The Best Movie

I can only imagine is a very heartfelt movie. It tells a difficult story about a young guy's home life and him trying to become a singer. It gives every detail about how he grew up. He faces many challenges but never lets them define who he is. This movie is so good because people can relate to it. Not everyone has the perfect home life but it's okay. This movie shows you can overcome the obstacles you face no matter your circumstances. This movie is such an inspiring movie everyone will enjoy it. It is a must see movie.

The movie starts out showing his childhood. His parents were married, but his mom was getting abused by his dad. He went out to a church camp, and when he returned his mom was no longer there. She left because of the abusive relationship she was in. His dad was a very bad alcoholic. It goes later into his life, he plays football in high school just like his dad did. He ends up getting hurt and can no longer play the game.

He starts singing and joins a band. They travel around trying to become big. They get so many no's and get told they will not make it. It became very disappointing for them, but they never gave up. They finally after many tries got to perform big. Someone finally signed them a record deal because of their hit song. Their song I can only imagine is still a song that is so popular. Their group Mercy Me came out with many more hit songs. He was the lead singer. He finally made it no matter his circumstances.

At the end of the movie, he reconnects with his father. He does not know but his father kept a secret that he had cancer. He knew his dad was sick, but did not know what was wrong. His dad refused treatment and later on passed away.He overcame so many circumstances which made the movie so inspiring. It makes you realize how grateful you should be for the life that you were able to have. This movie inspires me to be thankful for all the supporting family members I have. Also, to be thankful that I get to go to college. If you have not watched this movie, you are really missing out.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
