you're so beautiful...it hurts to look at you

So cathy sent a few of us this link and i wanted to pass it on to you guys. it's about the guy who writes dilbert and how through some rare disease his brain stopped being able to talk so he lost his voice...like literally lost the ability to talk. Anyways it's very eeeemotional and cahty and i were both crying on gchat adn i wanted to share it with you all to remind you guys to find the beauty in life.

http://dilbertblog.typepad.com/the_dilbert_blog/2006/10/good_news_day.html

what we especially lvoe about it is that in the end he's like...this is the best day of my life now share wiht me the best day in your life. how wonderful! it's like....i love my life and now think about why you shoudl lvoe your life. Adn cathy and i agreed that it was in fact a true pay it forward moment and so i'm paying it forward ot you. think about a great moment over the past few days or whatevre when you were most happy. i todl her it was the other nght when i was driving home listening to "pump it up" and it was dark and the trees had lost hteir leaves and i thought..."wow i'm so lucky!!" I was just so overwhelmed by the simple beauty of life. cathy said her moment was "when i'm fishing, and it's like 70 degrees in oct, and i see the sun, setting/rising, yes! pay it forward!" Please leave comments wiht the greates moment of your life now or then or wahtever. come on guys, if this isn't a great opportunity to comment then i don't know what is.

and yet again just to bring us back to tv i thougth of two great quotes that express how i feel right now.

"so....beautiful...no...words....should have sent a poet." Jodie Foster in Contact. I know this scene was so cheesy and i use this quote quite regularly but sometimes it's so apt! liek really sometimes life is so beautiful that i can't express myself in words and i wish that i were a poet!! seriously!

and then there is also
"you're so beautiful...it hurts to look at you." what angela in my so called life says she wishes somoene woudl say to her in that moment of sssssex. and i think it's also appropro cuz sometimes life is so beautiful that it hurts.

PAY IT FORWARD!!

i had a similar moment to you when i was driving to work in the morning and there were a few dark clouds and it was windy and wet from rain, but not raining. mostly i feel like i feel that way when i am alone with nature. i don't know why that is. i also like it when i am awake on a saturday or sunday and it is raining outside, but i don't have to get out of bed. i love that.
