So much beauty in the world
The bag scene from the movie American Beauty...
You want to see the most beautifuI thing I've ever filmed? It was one of those days...where it's a minute away from snowing...and there was this electricity in the air. You can almost hear it...right?...and this bag was just...dancing with me...like a little kid begging me to play with it, for fifteen minutes. That's the day I realized that there was this entire life behind things...and this incredibly benevolent force...that wanted me to know that there was no reason to be afraid...ever. Video's a poor excuse I know, but it helps me remember. I need to remember. Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world...I feel like I can't take it...and my heart is just going to...cave in.
