just thinking: sometimes, you've got to cut youself some slack. life's too short to be living in regrets...
when she wakes up tomorrow, i hope she'll feel better...
just wanted to put this down. there's something about "armageddon" that i find incredibly sad. it's not exactly one of the best shows i've ever watched ("Beaches" has to rank waay up there at no.1), but there's something about it that makes me think, that captures my heart each time i watch it.
they're showing it again on tv this sunday (this sunday being blockbuster sunday.. competition with channel i.. sigh..). didn't want to watch it initially, but when i saw the ad for it just now, i just thought argh damn i'm so going to end up watching it.
i think i like it because they didn't exactly make a big deal out of the "we are going to save the world, entire mankind" thing. it would have ruined the show if they did, but no... i thought it was more on a individual scale/level - when the bruce willis character was talking to his daughter (liv tyler), at that moment, being the hero who saves the world didn't matter, not that saving the world didn't matter, of course it did, but at that last goodbye, what mattered was family, what mattered was he would never see his daughter again, she would never see her father again. at that moment, family was far more impt than the world...
i know pple have told me that "deep impact" was a far better show, not so much bravado, more human, more touching. i've watched it, but it didn't strike me the way "armageddon" did. yes, it was more 'human', but i felt, in a way, it tried to do too much, encompass too much at once, which somehow detracted from the buildup of emotion "armageddon" achieved for me..
funny how one movie can span such a well of thoughts. oh and just a tidbit, this was the first movie i watched with him ^^ special memories.. haha which consist mostly of me asking him! teehee.. i had better go hide now grin
Here we are
After all these years
Face to face
Heart to heart
And I've loved you from the start
But I never thought that we'd be standing here
After all these years
Here we are
With another song to sing
All these days
Pass us by
As we watched our childhood fly
And I'm still the one to share your hopes and fears
After all these years ...
...And here we are
With another bridge to cross
Face to face
Heart to heart
And I loved you from the start
But I never thought that we'd be standing here
After all these years ...
