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.
One day, the phone won't ring with your father's voice on the other end.
One day, you'll wish he had more time to share stories and laughter with you.
One day, he'll stop offering the advice he always thought was best for you.
One day, the house that was always filled with his warm hug will feel strangely quiet.
One day, all that will be left are the memories of your time together.
Time moves on relentlessly, indifferent to everyone.
And on that day, you'll feel a loss so pensive that nothing and no one will ever truly replace it.
