On The Verge of Tears

I’ve got a lot of pix to upload from the last few days, but they’ve been long and tiresome.   And so, I’m alone in my hotel room late tonight, and I’m feeling this.

If you don’t know this movie, you should watch it.  I’ve always loved it, because it speaks to me.  It’s not a terrific movie, but to me it means a lot.  It’s almost impossible to say out loud what you truly feel in mixed company, and even more difficult for the people to “hear” you when you speak your true thoughts.   So, often times, we remain silent, until the rare opportunity comes along for us to be able to say what we really want to express.  Even when we have to hide it in codes, keys, and pseudonyms.   Most of the time, we are together, even when we can’t admit it out loud.  It takes courage to speak up for ourselves, and about the people we care about.
