Always be my maybe

Are you always scared to try new things and leave your comfort zone like Marcus?  Marcus did not want to take risks and come out of his comfort zone but with the help of his father and Sasha he realized the importance of moving forward in life. This movie is not like your regular romantic comedy it conveys a powerful message.
     Always be my maybe is about two asian-americansMarcus and Sasha they lived next door to each other in San-Fransisco and were best friends. They lost contact with each other when they were 18 because of an awkward sexual encounter. They meet 16 years later when Sasha who is now a celebrity chef comes back to San-Francisco to open a new restaurant. She discovered that Marcus works and lives with his father and he still plays with the same band and in the same venue he played in when they were young.
 They realized that they still had feelings for each other but their values and lifestyle are total opposite. Sasha lives a big rich and famous life while Marcus is content living with his dad in their small neighborhood. They often find themselves arguing about different things but the feelings they have for each other is noticeable by people around them. Can they put their differences aside and realize that they are made for each other?
  What is so special about this movie  you may ask.
1) Motivation : After I saw this movie I was motivated because I am like Marcus who likes to stay in his comfort zone and not p she himself to do great things with his life unlike Sasha.  I am happy that at the end of this movie Marcus saw the need to make a change in his life for good.
2) The power of integrity was portrayed in this movie. Marcus told Sasha that having money and fame had changed her for the worse and she needs to become  her old self again.  Marcus adviced her that she should be true to herself no matter what.
