I wanted to say that I am sorry about the loss of your parents. I lost my parents a year and a half apart, so I understand how you must feel. I hope that memories of them are a blessing to you.
As long as our messes end up being fine... Nice entry.
And yes, local movie theaters were the thing in my much younger times and going there with the family or an adult was a highlight.
In remember turning 21. It was a good Birthday. You enjoy Birthdays the most when you are a kid. Mine is right before Christmas so I get double gifts. A good entry.
Oh well, we can’t win them all can we? I got disqualified last month. It’s all grist for the mill though.I think so long as we are happy with our story or poem that all that matters.
Promet: Melancholy
Melancholy, which afflicts the creative types, was around in antiquity and is still present in civilizations that think of themselves as modern.
What do you think melancholy is?
Melancholy is a mental illness which is now called depression. I like the sound of the word Melancholy. It even sounds sad. It sounds romantic, a word which might describe a maiden from history. When I hear the word I never think it is used to describe an illness or condition a man might experience.
It’s a word one would use in romantic poetry, when the heroine is pining for her lost lover perhaps.
There was a film called Melancholia. Apparently it’s very difficult to watch. It’s about depression, mental illness and the end of the world. Not one I’ll be rushing out to see.
Perhaps it should be used more to describe the feeling of despair which so many people are suffering from today.
