Chuck, your a freak.

Man, I can't watch that without breaking up!
That has got to be one of the most beautiful scenes in all of cinema!
Actually I finally watched the movie again for the first time since December of 07. Thats was when I watched it with you Tru!
This time I watched it with my partner. It was still gut wrenching and i did cry through most of the movie.
Partly because it is so moving and partly because I knew the train wreck that was coming but was unable to turn away.
This time however was different. I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that even if I do wind up alone in trailer 17, I will be suffused in the knowledge that I had the courage to finally live the life I was meant to live. That I allowed myself to love and be loved. That, I think ,is the meaning behind the story. We have but one life. We can live it to the fullest taking chances and livng outloud or we can live it all folded up in a small box we put ourselves in. One way it ends fully realized and regret free the other way winds up filled with bitterness and regret never being fully realized.
I'm glad I changed the way I was going!
Thank you Ennis for showing me the way! Thank you my friends for helping me along!

Never will there be anything quite like the love of Jack and Ennis, and our love for them.
Let Be.

You can say that twice and mean it!
