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.
Lady was travelling in a train with a 6 year kid... they both were reading books....
It seemed unbelievable to most of the fellow passengers. Then one of them got up and asked..."maam in today's world the kids who are born play with smartphone and this kid is reading. How come he is not playing with phone or a tablet? How come he listens to you and how did you make him do that?" To this the woman calmly replied "Sir, kids do not listen to us but they surely do copy us."
