After so many years those of you who know what "Elfquest" a movie is going to be made it seems. Warner Brothers is in the process of buying to rights to create a movie. I have waited years and years for this. I am so excited and wanted to share the news.
Been thinking about alot of stuff lately. Been going over things in my head and well my friend Jtrain asked if I had stopped posting cause Heath Ledger was dead. And well no. I guess I am not posting so much any more just don’t know what to say. I am not the happiest of people at the moment. Not for any particular reason. I have a great man, an awesome cat, time on my hands and yet still not happy. Have to find what I want to do with myself and truly have no clue that does not include large sums of money, as in school or starting damn jewelry thing I am always talking about. So when I get melancholy or what have you one of two things happen; either I get writing or I disappear behind the big black velvety curtain. And only once in a while pop my head out to say hello. I will find my way back I know, just gonna take time.
I have sat here this week deep in thought about Heath Ledger. I never met the man, but felt a familiarty with him. Perhaps it was the vulnerability he seemed to carry with him through out all his films. I respected him for not getting caught up in all the Hollywood hubbub. He seemed so down to earth and seeing him on screen made one feel like he was the boy next store. Some one you might meet walking down the street. A man that would stop to help you if you had a blown tire or were just upset on the street. Such a profound loss for it seems so many. I keep going over the statement he made in an interview about his thoughts on his death, "Its a catch 22, I feel good about dying because I will live on through her, but at the same time I want to be here and see my daughter grow up." Such a thing to say, and I understand what he meant by it but at the same time a dangerous thing to say for self fulfilling prophecies can kick you in the butt. I also truly feel bad for his daughter. I lost my father at an early age although very different circumstances it is a hard thing to go through. But perhaps she will have some solice in that she can see her dad whenever she wants. Though this is a small thing compared to having him there with her. I also keep going over in my head that he will not make any more movies. I looked so forward to seeing all his new films. Any film he might be in I would see. I also look forward to seeing his upcoming role in The Dark Knight!!!! Why does this stranger's death affect me so much. Ah, well, may he rest in peace.
I can't believe this one of my favorite actors has died. Heath Ledger is dead. He died this afternoon in his New York apartment, possibly of a drug overdose. His poor daughter! I always thought he would be a huge star which he was but he had so much talent. this is so shocking and sad!!!!
I am sitting here in utter shock!!!
May he rest in peace and sending luving energy to his loved ones!
The wind whispers through frost covered trees. Dew drops frozen in winters grasp as lace over a veiled face.
Draped across a landscape of slumbering forests and fallow fields. The slighest breeze will blow it all away.
Darkness falls early each day with the promise of the rising moon to light the way. Dreams spoken softly in the darkness of the night, waiting for the light of day.
Well today is the Winter Solstice and sickness be damned I say. I finally made it out into the woods and brought with me an offering to the Mother and her new born son. Bananas, bread, tomatoes, nuts, mandarin and some very nice red wine. Lit a candle and thanked them for all I have recieved in way of friends and gifts this year. And a gift of coming to Norway was well one of the best. I also thanked them for my man, for without him I would not be as thankful as I am for he has done so much to make my life wonderful. What would I do without you Akhie?
So happy winter solstice to everyone and have a great weekend!!!
I made it safely to Norway but sadly not more then two days after arriving I got sick with a cold. It has made me miserable but was expected after all. Good thing the cold was early on! I have taken many pictures which will be posted when I get back home.
Here it is cold and frosty. It has only snowed once since arriving but everything is covered over with frost. It is so beautiful here and I have truly missed this place. Full of trolls and nissers!!!!! I have yet to make it into the woods where many years ago I first dedicated myself to the mother and father, but come the 21st I am headed to the woods with cheese, bread and fruit and full of thankfulness that I am back again even if for only a short while.
I hope every one has a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. I will be back for New Year's Eve and plan on celebrating it with my bro Osiris as we have much to celebrate this year!!!
