Yesterday I watched this movie that I had dismissed as being just another movie about Richard Gere’s fidelity – Shall We Dance. It wasn’t. In fact it was quite a pleasant movie.There’s a scene where Susan Sarandon is talking about marriage, and that was for me the best dialog in the entire movie: We need a witness to our lives. There’s a billion people on the planet… I mean, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you’re promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things… all of it, all of the time, every day. You’re saying ‘Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness’.” So I guess I’m already married to this blog, eh? We all need witnesses, right? Plural? Okay I should stop writing now…P.S. Ladies, I know you love Richie, but come on, aren’t we all sick of the redundancy in his roles? It’s like medieval movie – Russell Crowe. Movie about male fidelity – Richard Gere.
And each by each, every star, burning with the might of a thousand suns, departs from sight. And when the night comes over again, will we remember them for what they were one moment before? Their names, their positions in the sky? Their meanings in our minds?

too much into the skies even for me to decipher
Life moves on…
Aha!
Read this on twitter.
wow.
and tragic, we dont.
Perhaps not that tragic to forget. But definitely a tragedy to be forgotten. Hypocritical, but tragic
haha well.. i feel both are equally tragic somehow
imagine, not giving something spectacular its due.. always a shame.
I understand what you’re saying. That’s why I call myself a ‘tragedy in the making’
