How happy is the blameless vestal's lot
The world forgetting by the world forgot
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Each prayer accepted and each wish resigned
For once I don' even want to make sense of that. I wholly and completly understand one line, and I stopped myself there. I understand the world forgotten by the world forgot. I stopped myself because there is no need to understand all of it. It brings out emotion in me without understanding. I finnally understand what Morgan Freeman meant when he said "to this day, I still don't know what those two ladies were singing about. And I don't want to know. All I know is that it was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard in my life." (Shawshank Redemption) I couldn't understand how you can see beauty in something without understanding it completly, in the sciences and mathematics you just can't. But the beauty in some things lies only in their ability to evoke emotions. I guess thats why the say "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder."
One thing the movie made me think about:
Maybe love isn't physical or emotional, or even biological. Maybe love transcends all that. Maybe love is a joining of two souls. Maybe thats where that saying comes from. "love shall conquer all". Maybe thats waht Shakespeare was trying to say. When 2 ppl fall in love, it isn't physical at all, it is spiritual. It was meant to happen because of "unearthly" forces. It borders on the principle of soulmates. Or maybe that principle is so interesting because we want to belive there is sumone out there that is perfect for us. Someone we are meant to be with no matter what. Make your own decisions, because as much as you'd like, no one will make them for you. Just do what you want/have to. Close you eyes and jump and you'll realize that it really isn't as bad as you thought it would be. Or even if it is you still live and that is reason enough to celebrate.
One thing I hate.
My mother told me today "don't take the tone of voice with me, Im your mother, I gave you life." How long do I have to repay her for that. Why do women always think when they do sumthing for you that u are indebted to them for your entire life. Tiger Cock experianced this. His whole relationship he had to pay for the mistake he made. When does it end, when can you just be, and do what you want for yourself, not because you are indebted.
