Not only do you summarize one of Chaplin's movies - City Lights (and I do believe the flower girl was blind) - but you manage to weave in Chaplin's life story and why 'The Tramp' was created in the first place.
He came from nothing and became such an icon, all while showing the world that you did not have to lose your humanity in the process.
Thanks for joining me in celebrating Charlie Chaplin's 136th birthday with your tribute!
Yes, I agree. Fascist/autocratic/theocratic states in Russia and the USA will force Europe and Canada into a partnership that may benefit the world. May they be the light going forward.
Very well said, Sue. I agree with life is satisfying once we stop focusing on other's happiness and instead of focusing on ourselves. It was a difficult lesson but one that changed my life.
‘Those who think that the world is of utmost importance are worldly beings. In the world, there is constant movement and the need for correction.
The eternal coming and going is the swing of happiness and misery. Those who only act out different parts do not forget their true being. You people are children of immortality. Your own form is that of truth, auspiciousness and beauty (satyam, shivam, sundaram).
Why do you want to enter the flow of worldly affairs that cause confusion and restlessness?
If you want to flow, flow with the deluge of the highest good.’
