Excerpt from The Holiday...

Had this movie for a long time now...

just haven't the time or heart to really watch it.

As it turns out, this movie was FANTASTIC!

Had a lot of laughs, and an equal amount of tears as i watched it all out.

Below is a part of the movie that really got me...

Nevermind the reason, but i thought it was beautifully scriptted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"... I understand a feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible,

and how it can actually ache in places that you didn't know you had inside you...

and it doesn't matter how many haircuts you get, or gyms you join,

or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your friends,

you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could've misunderstood...

And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were HAPPY? And some times you can even convince yourself that he'll see the light and show up at your door."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"And after all that, however long that may be, you go somewhere new...

and you'll meet people who makes you feel worthwhile again,

and little pieces of your soul will finally come back...

And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you... wasted,

that will eventually, begin to fade."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For some reason, that made me weep.

Such a weeper.
