“Lust, Caution” – Movie Trailer

張學友 – 淹没 | 色, 戒 主題曲 (“Lust, Caution” Theme Song)

這一個夜裡
雨點下得
很密
悶透的屋裡
燈光一絲
窗前雨滴
四處逃避
心底的日記
渾和短促氣息

迴音前後在牆壁響起
耳邊累積
無能為力

前事不斷爬進來
早知道是場禍災
以為可以躲開
這意外 意料之外
是天意 上天的安排

該走的時候
感覺背後濕透
冷意開始蔓延在遊走
湧上眉梢
淹沒心頭

記憶不斷闖進來
一切變得明白
曾經擁有的愛

比我更需要存在

比我更需要存在

活該
不要徘徊
來就來
只是一場債

深如海 深如海 如海

深如海 深如海 如海

Quote about Getting Over Someone

July 2, 2007 at 9:59 pm (ALL Posts, Love, Movies, Quotes)

— from “The Holiday” (2006)

Iris: “…What I’m trying to say is I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually ache in places you didn’t know you had inside you. And it doesn’t matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends… you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he’ll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long all that may be, you’ll go somewhere new. And you’ll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade.”

American Beauty (1999)

April 15, 2007 at 7:59 am (ALL Posts, Inspirational, Life, Movies, Quotes, Thoughts, YouTube)

LW’s Words:
What a beautiful, inspiring and optimistic message it carries for our discovery… There are so much beauty in this world, so much to be grateful for.

Don’t wait till the last minute of our lives to see the beauty and feel the joy; don’t wait till it’s too late to appreciate and feel gratitude for the simple moments of our little lives.

Movie: American Beauty (the Ending)

[Youtube = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYrgHju3d-E%5D

“I had always heard your entire life flashes in front of your eyes the second before you die.
First of all, that one second isn’t a second at all. It stretches on forever, like an ocean of time.

For me, it was lying on my back at Boy Scout Camp, watching falling stars.
And yellow leaves, from the maple trees that lined our street.
Or my grandmother’s hands, and the way her skin seemed like paper.
And the first time I saw my cousin Tony’s brand new Firebird.
And Janie… and Janie…
And Carolyn…

I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it’s hard to stay mad, when there’s so much beauty in the world.
Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once, and it’s too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst.
And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain.
And I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.

You have no idea what I’m talking about, I’m sure. But don’t worry… you will someday.”

Air Supply – Making Love Out of Nothing at All

April 11, 2007 at 9:37 pm (ALL Posts, Daniel Craig, English Songs, Lyrics, Movies, Music, YouTube)

…with clips from “Casino Royale” (James Bond & Vesper Lynd)

[Youtube = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1bbDQRgOTA%5D

Lyrics

I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where to find the answers
And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream

And I know just where to touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose
And I know the night is fading
And I know the time’s gonna fly
And I’m never gonna tell you everything I’ve got to tell you
But I know I’ve got to give it a try

And I know the roads to riches
And I know the ways to fame
I know all the rules
And then I know how to break them
And I always know the name of the game

But I don’t know how to leave you
And I’ll never let you fall
And I don’t know how you do it
Making love out of nothing at all

Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love…
Out of nothing at all

Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all

Every time I see you all the rays of the sun are streaming through the waves in your hair
And every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes like a spotlight
The beating of my heart is a drum and it’s lost and it’s looking for a rhythm like you
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright
I’ve got to follow it, cause everything I know, well it’s nothing till I give it to you

I can make the run or stumble
I can make the final block
And I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle
I can make all the stadiums rock

I can make tonight forever
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made
And I can make all your demons be gone

But I’m never gonna make it without you
Do you really want to see me crawl
And I’m never gonna make it like you do
Making love out of nothing at all

Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love…
Out of nothing at all

Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all
Making love… Out of nothing at all
(Repeat)

Do you know “The Secret”?

April 6, 2007 at 9:42 am (ALL Posts, Books, Inspirational, Law of Attraction / Intention, Life, Movies, Quotes, Thoughts, YouTube)

LW’s Words:

“What you think and how you feel shape your future.”, a friend told me. “…When you’ve modified your thought processes into positive ones, your entire life will change. I very firmly believe that we get what we think and say. There are spiritual powers in the universe that see to that. When we think negative thoughts, we get negative results in our lives. When we think and say positive things, we get positive results in our lives. It works every time.”
He also suggested that I watched “The Secret” dvd.

The message of “The Secret” is basically to understand the Law of Attraction – you attract what you think about – and use the power of intention to manifest the things you want in your life. So by thinking positive thoughts, seeing the beauty in the world, and feeling the love and joy in everyday life, we are more likely to bring all these things to our lives.

It’s about having a positive attitude and outlook on life… “Whatever it is you are feeling is a perfect reflection of what is in the process of becoming.”

———————————————————————————

“We are like magnets – like attract like. You become AND attract what you think.”
“Choose your thoughts carefully .. you are a masterpiece of your life.”
~ quotes from The Secret

“What We Think, We Become…”
~ Buddha

“you get what you think about; your thoughts determine your destiny.”
“…our thinking creates our reality”
~ Louise Hay

– A Gift From The Secret Dedicated To Someone Very Special

Today is the beginning of my new life
I am starting over today
All good things are coming to me today
I am grateful to be alive

I see beauty all around me
I live with passion and purpose
I take time to laugh and play everyday
I am awake, energized and alive

I focus on all the good things in life
And give thanks for them
I am at peace and one with everything
I feel the love, the joy, the abundance

I am free to be myself
I am magnificence in human form
I am the perfection of life
I am grateful to be… ME

Today is the best day of my life ~

a Jerry McGuire Moment…

March 22, 2007 at 8:30 pm (ALL Posts, Life, Movies, Thoughts, YouTube)

I have lots of those Jerry McGuire moments. Moments where I just stop, step outside of the here and now, and listen to the inner voice asking these questions:
— Have I found my place in the world? Do I like my place in the world?
— How did I get to where I am right now? Is this where I want to be?
— What exactly do I want and where exactly do I want to be?
— Am I happy? Could I be happier?

Yes, many questions from deep within, but seldom have I had any answers. In rare cases when I do have answers and think things should be made better, I procrastinate… I do that by asking myself even more questions…

Shouldn’t we be happy with what we got? And if I am happy, why would I still want to strive for something more?!?!

Can’t we just STOP wanting and STOP chasing – knowing most of us had it pretty good…??
