Welcome to my world


Life is a constant pursuit, this is my journey.

William Wordsworth's Ode: Intimations of Immortality

"...Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass,

of glory in the flower; we will grieve not, rather find

strength in what remains behind;

In the primal sympathy which having been must ever be;

In the soothing thoughts that spring out of human suffering;

... In the faith that looks through death...

Thanks to the human heart by which we live

Thanks to its tenderness, its joys, and fears

To me the meanest flower that blows, can give thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears."

Great Films

From left to right: "The Age of Innocence", "The Last Emperor", "The Wizard of Oz", "Shawshank Redemption","UP", "The Thirteenth Floor", and "What dreams May Come".

















Movies make my world go 'round. A film can touch me and mold the way I think about a particular subject. I become enveloped in a world of imagination and imagery. Films have been my saving grace in difficult times and a reward after long days. I relate to characters and become engrossed in their artificial lives. I speak about fiction of course, but documentaries are close to my heart as well. I have learned so much about the world through documentaries. Nothing is ever as impactful as hands on learning but at least I can get a glimpse into the life of documentary subjects. Above are a few of my favorites; great films ranging from drama to romance, animated, musical, fantasy, and fiction:
