Marley Monday!

I watched Marley and Me last night. I wanted to read the book first but I couldn't help myself. I weeped like a little baby! Dogs are amazing creatures! and I still want a kitty! Hey, they could be best friends! Do you have a story of very different animals being the best of friends? Have a fantastic Monday! photo found here

Sweet Thing!

I am looking forward to this one! "Where the Wild Things Are" is so classic and special! It looks like they did a wonderful job with the interpretation, making a movie that will allow children to fall in love with this enchanting book and give adults a chance to revisit childhood in a whole new and exciting way!

I stumbled upon this cutie while browsing Things We Like. I thought it looked brilliantly sweet and the trailer was mysterious enough to make me want to know more about this boy and a penguin in a row boat! Based on a children's book by Oliver Jeffers, I am looking forwad to this one as well!

Movie Ticket!

This movie looks so good! I love a good laugh and a good heart tugging! People on the search for something and plenty of quirckiness along the way. I can't wait for this one!

Soft and Secrets

I like this...


She was more than human to me.

She was a Fairy, a Sylph, I don't know what she was - anything that no one ever saw,

and everything that everybody ever wanted.

I was swallowed up in an abyss of love in an instant.

There was no pausing on the brink; no looking down, or looking back;

I was gone, headlong, before I had sense to say a word to her.

~David Copperfield by Charles Dickens


I watched The Secret Life of Bees over the weekend and I really enjoyed it! I read the book a while back and was pleasantly surprised at how well it translated into a film. I also enjoyed all of the actresses chosen for the roles, they did a wonderful job. Here is the trailer and you should check out the soundtrack. It's vert sweet.



A song I loved from the movie! Lizz Wright. Song for Mia.

A few of the quotes I really enjoy...

It was the in-between time, before day leaves and night comes, a time I've never been partial to because of the sadness that lingers in the space between going and coming.



Bee yard etiquette: ... the world is really one big bee yard, and the same rules work fine in both places: Don't be afraid, as no life-loving bee wants to sting you. Still, don't be an idiot; wear long sleeves and long pants. Don't swat. Don't even think about swatting. If you feel angry, whistle. Anger agitates, while whistling melts a bee's temper. Act like you know what you're doing, even if you don't. Above all, send the bees love. Every little thing wants to be loved.


... some things don't matter much. Like the color of a house. How big is that in the overall scheme of life? But lifting a person's heart--now, that matters. The whole problem with people is ... they know what matters, but they don't choose it... The hardest thing on earth is choosing what matters.


... when it's time to die, die, and when it's time to live, live. Don't sort-of-maybe live, but live like you're going all out, like you're not afraid (of dying).


Bee hum... It was the oldest sound there was. Souls flying away.

I hope you night (Day) is full of joy! ♥Emma

Robbie Turner: Why're you crying?
Cecilia Tallis: Don't you know?
Robbie Turner: Yes, I know exactly.
[kisses her]
Atonement
To him she seemed so beautiful, so seductive, so different from ordinary people, that he could not understand why no one was as disturbed as he by the clicking of her heels on the paving stones, why no one else's heart was wild with the breeze stirred by the sighs of her veils, why everyone did not go mad with the movements of her braid, the flight of her hands, the gold of her laughter. He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell.

All our young lives we search for someone to love, someone to make us complete. We choose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope, all the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, someone perfect is searching for us.
-The Wonder Years
I know there are sooo many more! Any ideas and suggestions that did not come to my mind this evening? What makes you heart melt? Wuthering Heights? Juno? A sigh for Love!

"Into each life some rain must fall" ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow



It has rained here all day. Little drops and big drops.


I decided today I need a new umbrella, mine just will not do. I would love a sweet little umbrella with a duck head handle. Although, I do like Mary Poppins' bird umbrella!

I did find a cute duck one that I think would be perfect on days like this one!
Or I found this fantastic birdcage one that I wouldn't mind owning.
Either way I would be peachy out in the rain with one of these to keep my head dry. But then again once your wet it is so much fun!

The Beauty of Atonement (a small obsession)



I know Atonement is not a new movie but I was thinking about it today and had to share my almost obsession for this oh so lovely movie. The movie itself was good (as well as the book), passionate, fun, and tragic. But I thought it was so visually appealing. Everything from the costumes to the surroundings. Breathtaking! Just makes you want to jump in and be in this pretty world.
Beautiful! To see it is to love it♥!
