Short snippets again,.....

From the movie "The Last Kiss", was a memorable line from Tom Wilkinson's character, on the issue of love:-

"What you feel, only matters to you. It's what you do, to the people you say you love - that's what matters. It's the only thing that counts".

Ponder upon that for a while - you'll be surprised at how many people that will fail that test.

I loved this movie. It's brutally honest and does not try to sugarcoat or simplify complex issues of the fallibility of human nature, family and relationships. It's not judgemental yet it desists from being amoral. It doesn't promise a happy ending, but it offers to hope to those willing to confront their demons.

It's just plain good storytelling, really.

And somebody please give me a wife like the lovely, luscious and talented Jacinda Barrett. She's hot!!

Dibawah awan mendung dan hujan renyai sayu;
Disebalik nyaring nan bising ributan kosmpolitan
yang menghanyutkan seribu sibuk tugasan dan kejaran
manusia;
Didalam kamar samar cahaya yang hening,
membaluti jiwa geronggang;
Didalam minda yang serabut buta,
penuh persoalan tanpa selesai;

Pelita hatiku untukmu tetap menyala terang,
tanpa berserah,
tanpa sempadan yang dapat kucapai.
