I hope you dance
Song: I hope you dance
Artist:Lee Ann Womack
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes,
I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give fate a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling outReconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes,
I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

Egypt:Beyond the Pyramids (09-05-04)
Documentary for the History Channel
Amazing endurance and peseverance potrayed by the archeologists who work for decades to unearth the hidden treasures of the mystic land of Egypt.
The documentary focuses on the Temple of Karnak(for the King of the Gods Amon), The Red Chapel (which was rebuilt by the French Egyptologists by piecing together the remains (more like a3d jigsaw puzzle) and the Temple of Osiris (the god of the underworld).We then visit the Deir El Bahari of Queen Hatshepsut (Egypt's Female Pharoh), a structure that sort of blends into the rocks that enclose the space.
The second segment focuses on the KV5-the Valley of the Kings with Kent Weeks, who has been working on the project for 10 years.KV5 is the largest tomb in the Valley of Kings which houses the tombs of Ramasees's children.
Egypt never ceases to amaze...the mystical air...and every new unearthing just makes you wonder more...
The way home (09-04-04)
Korean movie-The Way Home
It was a beautiful saturday evening...the weather was pleasant outside, i relished the walk to the department and at the end of the day there was more meaning to life than i imagined. This Korean movie was such a beautiful potrayal of an unfolding of a relationship between a kid who is forced to leave his city and live with his grandmom (who is deaf and mute) in the village. The movie is told in all silence and subtlety as the kid tries to come to grips with the simple life in the village and when he finally recognizes the unconditional love of his grandmom, its time for him to get back to his home.
Amazing performance by the cast! There is a lot that I would want to write about the movie...but I'm scared it might lose the intensity, as some things are best experienced and viewed and not told. So all I have to say is watch it if you get a chance.
Life can be tough, gruelling...you may not own anything, you may be in abject poverty, to live your life or to hate it is up to you.
The mountains will always be there for you to look up and find solace.
Be thankful for all the blessings that life gives you and also for all the tough times...they are there to teach you and reveal the mysteries of living.
Stop all those mindless complaining...you need to start living and cherish every moment for what it is.
Shrek 2 (09-03-04)
Friday night...
Ok, the school screened the movie and i badly wanted a break, so watched it, even though I wasn't particularly keen in watching it. Well, it wasn't that much of a disappointment though. The animation had improved significantly from Shrek1, especially the fabric, fur and the environment animations. But I'm sure this is not something I would want to own a copy...it didn't have that 'fantasy' element and so definitely not my favorite. But it was just plain entertainment, the storyline reminded me of bollywood movies... the music was lively though. It was one of those movies where you didn't have to tax your brain trying to figure out the plot. Not too bad after all!
