I don't have a heart.

I never cared to watch the show Once Upon a Time since I watched the pilot and disliked it. But last sunday the episode aired was centered around Beauty and the Beast. I had to watch it because Belle will always be a favourite lady of mine. I must say that now I've watched all the episodes and my opinion of the show has improved drastically.

I recently watched Episode I in 3-D and I must say it was amazing. I'm not sure what it is about these movies but I think there will never be anything like them. George Lucas most certainly created a legacy.

It's gotten a lot harder to work in government. D'you think Winston Churchill ever had to pull his pants down and show his butt? No. But would he have? Yes. Now could he have? Maybe not towards the end of his life, but, he would have....because he loved his job.

Today is my last day in Oxford for some time, so I was spending some time with my Grandmother (97 years old and lovely). She told me that when she was young, in the 30s, she and friend (and her friend's friend) spent a night walking around London. But in that time ladies were not expected to do so, therefore she needed a male company which was one of her brothers (D). She said that they saw dawn in Westminster bridge. Apparently they did so because they wanted to experience the following poem:
Upon Westminster Bridge
Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty:
This City now doth like a garment wear
The beauty of the morning; silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie
Open unto the fields, and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendour valley, rock, or hill;
Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
The river glideth at his own sweet will:
Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;
And all that mighty heart is lying still!
William Wordsworth
This made me realize how many wonderful things, sometimes considered small things, we can experience. And I feel an urge to live, to experience.

"Look at the sky. It's not dark and black and without character. The black is, in fact deep blue. And over there: lighter blue and blowing through the blues and blackness the winds swirling through the air and then shining, burning, bursting through: the stars! And you see how they roar their light. Everywhere we look, the complex magic of nature blazes before our eyes.
[...] It seems to me there's so much more to the world then the average eye is allowed to see. I believe, if you look hard, there are more wonders in this universe then you could ever have dreamt of."
