“Your problem is how you are going to spend this one and precious life you have been issued.

“[T]hat old September feeling, left over from school days, of summer passing, vacation nearly done, obligations gathering, books and football in the air ...

“You must learn one thing: the world was made to be free in. Give up all the other worlds except the one to which you belong. Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you.” ― David Whyte
“You don’t need to set yourself on fire to keep others warm.” - from HBO series “The Affair” It means that it’s okay to tell others no, and still be helpful to them. I like that one.

“Every part of me pulses with electric energy. Every synapse is firing, every part of me is alert, awake, and what I think is that this, this feeling, this is real.

I sorta vaguely recall that also I remember seeing a movie where my version featured and have a thin memory of it being something about a mental hospital - love story in there. But that is all I have I sorta remember its a haunting melody. If I have spare moment, well actually I have a lot of spare moments being retired, but do lots of my stuff, and I might add as one of my moments some effort to track down the movie Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I looked it up because it was bothering me (curse you) War of the Worlds 'Cause you're not here 'Cause you're not here 'Cause you're not here Fire suddenly leapt from house to house. The population panicked and ran, and I was swept along with them, aimless and lost without Carrie. Again haunting lyrics Cheers Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
AND Would you believe I did look it up and would you double believe Autumn Leaves is a 1956 American film noirdrama film by Columbia Pictures starring Joan Crawford and Cliff Robertson in an older woman/younger man tale of mental illness. The screenplay was written by Jean Rouverol and Hugo Butler, though it was credited to Jack Jevne (serving as a front), since Rouverol and Butler were blacklisted at the time of the film's release. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autumn_Leaves_(film) Memory vague on details but hanging in there. 1956 = me age 12, 2019 = me 77. Not to shabby Next track down if I can download a copy Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
