Remember Me, Lawsuits, and the BEST SONG EVER

Video: Xistris family showed this to me awhile back and is very powerful. Try to get through without crying, I dare you.



Article: The Lawsuit of the Traveling Pants!

America, maybe isn't the land of opportunity but the land of frivolous lawsuits. I have been following this story for awhile, and while seemingly a joke to me when I first read the story, it now has become sad as the Chungs may have to leave the land of opportunity because of the legal costs. It is a shame hard workers may have to return to Korea even after they offered Mr. Pearson approximately $12,000, over 10x the value of the lost suit. As the Wicked Witch would say "What a world, what a world."

Song: Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, Ryuichi Sakamoto

Matt Manning introduced me to one of my new favorite songs a few months back... which at first I didn't really like until the 2:45 mark... and at that point, the entire song changed for me. It contrasted greatly the beginning piano with staccato strings... I now listen to this song every night before I go to bed...

The 2:45 mark has meant so many things for me, and the way I interpret it changes every time. Sometimes I think it represents a great and exciting moment in life, while the beginning is of life was just boring... or the reverse, things are going smoothly in life, when all the sudden something dramatic/traumatic occurs. I love it because there are no words, yet it may be easier to find meaning or message in this song than most songs packed with words.

I highly highly recommend you download this!
