One of my favorite parts in that movie is when Jack holds Rose&#8217;s hand and they stand in the front of the ship, looking upon the water, Jack holding Rose in his arms, and she says it feels like flying!

When you watch your favorite movies, think about how you feel during certain scenes. Tap into these emotions and create stories that&#8217;ll have the same effect on your readers!<\/p>\n<p>Cecelia Dowdy<br \/>www.ceceliadowdy.com<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was flipping through channels Sunday afternoon and I caught the last part of a great movie, Beaches.
