Constantly

Last night was strange. It was a Wednesday but I didn't have class. I was planning on attending anyway, but came to find it would have been strange for me to just "show up". I decided I didn't want to risk the important things (and important people) by being there. So, instead, I went to see The Constant Gardener with Kizzle.

The movie was amazing and brought up a very poignant thought in my mind. Aside from it's messages and it's story line and all of it's amazing camera work, the movie made me remember that THESE are the kinds of movies I truly love. Movies that make you think, that evolve and don't stand stagnant on the screen, same old characters, same old ideas. These movies, most of which start off as limited release, seem to be catching hold of me recently. I hope to catch more of them.

Then after the movie it was driving home. My lovely one called while I was in the car and I couldn't hear her very well. We talked for a moment and when we got off the phone I was quiet. I had been thinking about her all night, and hearing her voice quieted me in such a deep way. My soul was still for a moment with the thoughts of her now reeling in the forefront of my mind. Even when other things in the world are happening, even when I am living and she is living and even if we are apart, she is there. And when my mind is on other things, it is my soul that is lost in memories of her...

...constantly.
