paragon of virtue

AUDREY HEPBURN as Princess Ann in ROMAN HOLIDAY (1953) dir. William Wyler

Far away, long ago, glowing dim as an ember things my heart used to know, things it yearns to remember. And a song someone sings once upon a december.

Our Friday night book club became a refuge to us. A private freedom to feel the world growing darker all around you, but you only need a candle to see new worlds unfold. That is what we found in our society.

A tale that becomes folklore is one that is passed down and whispered around. Sometimes even sung about. The lines between fantasy and reality blur and the boundaries between truth and fiction become almost indiscernible. It’s now up to you to pass them down.

These are moments of newfound hope, extreme joy, intense passion, wishful thinking, and in some cases, the unthinkable letdown. And in my mind, every one of these memories looks the same to me. I see all of these moments in bright, burning red.

“There were grief and ruins, and you were the miracle.”

Little Women (2019) dir. Greta Gerwig

Men are gonna come along and wanna teach you things. Doesn’t make them any smarther. In most ways, they’re not, but it makes them feel bigger. They can show you how things are done. You just let them blow by, and you go on ahead, and do just what the hell you feel like. It takes a strong woman to stay by herself, in a world that people will settle for anything, just to say they have something.
