Music of Love
Today was beautiful. I'm not sure what made it for me really, but I have realized a few things that made me feel better about everything.
Onto a new topic. I watched Moulin Rouge with my roommates tonight. I am blown away yet again. I love the story and the music. It's just so emotional.
Is it wrong for me to want to have that kind of passion in my life? Not all the time, but occasionally I think it would be nice.
The fact that I cried a little at the end of this movie made me think of the last time I remember crying during a movie. (Note, this is just the last time I remember.) I believe it was during LotR:RotK. I think I remember counting at least 6 different times I cried or almost cried during that movie. I love really powerful stories. And really powerful music too. The songs I listen to most aren't the goofy, fun songs. They're the songs that are full of meaning and emotion. The pieces of music I like playing most are the powerful pieces. The beautiful, emotional stuff that you just kind of fall into. That's what comes more natural to me.
One of these days, I'll be able to put my thoughts into words a bit better. I almost feel like there's a reason I haven't been able to put down certain thoughts or feelings on paper. And anytime I do have those moments of inspiration, it's while I'm driving, or in the shower, or just doing something that prevents me from writing it down before I forget.
Yesterday, I had a feeling of guilt rush over me, not for something that I've done, but more of something other people do. I'm not even sure that there's anyway I could prevent other people from doing these things. I just felt guilty for other peoples' sins. It wasn't a feeling that really stuck with me, even though the thought did, but it was there. I've felt it before, but today the thought of what I was feeling really struck me.
Well, it's time for bed. Class at 11 tomorrow. Leaving for home sometime between 3 and 4 I think. I'm not really sure of the time, but I am going to be home over the weekend. Night all.
