My senior quote:

Will you come with me to the mountains? It will hurt at first, until your feet are hardened. Reality is harsh to the feet of shadows. But will you come?

- C.S. Lewis, The Great Divorce

It hurts to watch this movie, but in the end you're thankful you sat through it.

Some of the lyrics to Ice On Her Lashes fit the film Bright Star way too perfectly:

A lone woman stands in the turning December

She's got ice on her lashes, white at her winter coat

The trees stand like soldiers around her

Dutiful wooden curse

And the heart she feared frozen

Still beats and still marches on

Did you find it hard to breathe at first?

Were you wounded and in disbelief at how much it hurt?

Now the ache's still burning, but the world's still turning

Isn't it?

Oh, Annie

I still think of you each time I see the sun

Didn't want a life without you

But here I am living one
