Day 7: A song that reminds you of a certain event

This one is pretty easy, as the first thing that popped into my head was our wedding a little over 5 years ago today. This was our song that my hubby and I danced to at the reception, and my hubby originally picked the song. I guess it's kinda of a weird song to pick but we liked it.

Quotes about love

Seeing as I'm 63 episodes into the anime series Inuyasha, which is about love, I figured this week's quotes should reflect that. So I decided to use my absolute favorite love quote, from the book Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. It is a fantastic book that was recommended to me about five or so years ago by my dad, and is the true story of the author and his adventures in India. 

  • ‘I love you, Karla,’ I said when we were alone again. ‘I loved you the first second I saw you. I think I’ve loved you for as long as there’s been love in the world. I love your voice. I love your face. I love your hands. I love everything you do, and I love the way you do everything. It feels like magic when you touch me. I love the way your mind works, and the things you say. And even though it’s all true, all that, I don’t really understand it, and I can’t explain it—to you or to myself. I just love you. I just love you with all of my heart. You do what God should do: you give me a reason to live. You give me a reason to love the world.’--Shantaram

Paper Heart

I watched this great documentary today that I discovered thanks to Rotten Tomatoes, called Paper Heart. It's about a young woman's journey to discover what love really is and if it is possible for her to obtain it. She spends most of the movie affirming that she doesn't believe in love, until it accidently drops itself in her lap, in the form of actor Michael Cera, who's starred in brilliant indie films such as Juno with Ellen Page and the better well-known flick Superbad. He is so cute and awkward, how can you not help but fall for him? She spends most of the film interviewing other people around the US about what they feel is love, like couples who have been together for fifty years to wedding chapel operators and preachers in Vegas to a bikers at a biker bar. It made me laugh and cry, and I think it would be great to use as a part of a teen or adult program in the library. Here's the trailer if you are interested.
