"But only in their dreams can men be truly free, T'was always thus and always thus will be."
(An extract from Dead Poets Society.)
A movie I shall treasure for ever. I always watch this movie here and there to catch up with myself and observe and see what's different, what's not, what's new, what lacks, what's irrational, what's inspirational in this life I'm leading. It's a life reflection on a cosmic level.
Happy Birthday Virginia Woolf 🙏.
"What is the meaning of life? That was all- a simple question; one that tended to close in on one with years, the great revelation had never come. The great revelation perhaps never did come. Instead, there were little daily miracles, illuminations, matches struck unexpectedly in the dark; here was one."
_Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse_
Virginia Woolf, the writer who took refuge, took resort, took triumph, took life, and took vengence on life with Language. I always recommend her to friends and on social media. She was indeed a troubled woman, that only made her who she is. She wore her sufferings like her best attire. She lived her life but she saw through life in ways that few other writers could. She spoke for many things, she promoted many things, she aspired many things but what she does best is the art of reflection. She conjures up meaning out of nowhere, she pours life into inanimate, intangible things and defeats the ways of life by which it makes a man feels less, feels unimportant, or lost. Her human eye was indeed a beholder of many beauties and her mind a herald of many meanings. #readmorevirginiawoolf
