October Rush

-
So its October. Now we have been trapped in the middle of office politics. Everything seems to be occurring and thing will go its dangerous twists and turns. I would not know what will happen next. All I know is that I am ready to receive what is coming.

Of all these there is promise and there is a chance for a better tomorrow. We all are not afraid. We are doing the right thing and we will do whatever it take to make everything better. I am being created in this. It gives me strength. It prepares me for a better chance of receiving whichever end would it result.

In this movie, Gabe plays a high school history teacher who uses an “unconventional” approach in dealing with his students.

I love how it is presented or how I think it challenges racism and other social issues. I love the way different social and cultural stereotypes are presented and simultaneously, destroyed by conversation from the characters.

Although annoying, it is interesting to see how ...
