I spent Sunday expreriencing myself as a ‘human being’, instead of a ‘human doing or going’ for a change. I hardly moved off the couch all day…[someone had to let the pizza guy in].
So I took the opportunity to watch some of my favorite movies. In particular Chocolat is such a powerful, passionate and incredible movie. It’s the kind you can revisit frequently to remind yourself how to experience, express, and explore beauty in your every day.
Here are some of my favorite quotes:

“What’s the decor? Early Mexican brothel?”

“It melts ever so slowly on your tongue and tortures you with pleasure.”

“We can’t go round measuring our goodness by what we don’t do, by what we deny ourselves, what we resist, and who we exclude. I think we’ve got to measure our goodness by what we embrace, what we create, and who we include.”

“But still the clever North Wind was not satisfied. The wind spoke to Vianne of towns yet to be visited, friends in need yet to be discovered, battles yet to be fought….by someone else next time.”
