What is it about beauty that makes one want to posses it? Free beauty.
What is it about beauty that makes one want to posses it? Free beauty.
F. Scott Fitzgerald reading a portion of On Growing Old by John Masefield
Be with me, Beauty, for the fire is dying;
My dog and I are old, too old for roving.
Man, whose young passion sets the spindrift flying,
Is soon too lame to march, too cold for loving.
I take the book and gather to the fire,
Turning old yellow leaves; minute by minute
The clock ticks to my heart. A withered wire,
Moves a thiun ghost of music in the spinet.
I cannot sail your seas, I cannot wander
Your cornland, nor your hill-land, nor your valleys
Ever again, nore share the battle yonder
Where the young knight the broken squadron rallies.
Only stay quiet while my mind remembers
The beauty of fire from the beauty of embers.

I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

What if God doesn’t just love you because He’s God and that’s His job? What if the truth is that God actually likes you? Yes, you - right there, looking at this screen - you with the zits and the past and the lust and the blazing self-doubt - you with that weird laugh and the deep hurts and questions - you. What if God just really likes you for exactly who you are? Can you bear it?

Some people bring out the worst in you, others bring out the best, and then there are those remarkably rare, addictive ones who just bring out the most. Of everything. They make you feel so alive that you’d follow them straight into hell, just to keep getting your fix.

9 Things You Didn’t know about Bill Murray
“One time Bill was in Scotland when he met a (presumably good-looking) 22-year-old Norwegian exchange student at a bar who brought him to a house party friends of hers were throwing. When they arrived, upon finding a huge pile of dirty dishes in the sink and no clean glasses to drink from, Bill just started washing the dishes like it was no big deal. Afterward he happily drank vodka from a coffee cup”
“There are scores of websites and blogs dedicated to reporting Bill Murray encounters, stories, and sightings. There are accounts of Bill hanging out with people at karaoke bars (pictured); showing up at random house parties (pictured); inviting himself for drinks with complete strangers (pictured); and, best of all, sneaking up behind someone on the street, covering their eyes, saying “guess who” and, when they see who it actually is, proclaiming “no one will ever believe you.””
