Impossible!

“When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains--however improbable--must be the truth.”

Hard to remember, impossible to forget

Leave it to Cameron Crowe to make another heart warming masterpiece. I truly envy genius. Here's a partial Crowe filmography:

Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Say Anything
Singles
Jerry Maguire
Almost Famous
Vanilla Sky
and my newest favorite with quotes to die for Elizabethtown

Thanks for reminding me that there is still some unpolluted water left on Earth.

How full is your glass today?

"Life in itself is an empty canvas, it becomes whatsoever you paint on it. You can paint misery, you can paint bliss. This freedom is your glory."

-From Osho

One of my favorite cartoons of all time depicts a couple sitting in a bar looking at a partially filled glass of water and the caption reads "It's half full, but the water is probably polluted". I never thought my pessimistic idealism could be so accurately portrayed. So how pure is the water filling your glass today?

And to bleed willingly and joyfully

For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you ...

For love is sufficient unto love ...

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself ...


To know the pain of too much tenderness.

To be wounded by your own understanding of love;

And to bleed willingly and joyfully.


-Excerpted from "On Love" from "The Prophet" by Kahil Gibr

Thank you my love for making my life so livable.
