I am OBSESSED with people telling me how they met the love of their life. Just found out my director met his wife through a misdirected email - that’s fate right there.
“I saw her last name was Jewish - and I’m Jewish, so when I corrected the email I told her Shabbat Shalom with a smiley face — this was the very beginning of the emoticon era, you understand. She had a watermark of a dog rescue at the bottom of her email, and I love dogs, so I found her website and there she was — all these videos of her rehabilitating dogs and talking about the organization. I fell in love with her just from those videos.”
😭😭😭
“I asked if we could meet for coffee, told her I was looking for volunteer opportunities — which was halfway a lie — and she said ‘okay, but just so you know I have a boyfriend, so this is strictly business,’ and I was so disappointed, but I did want to meet her. We sat in that coffeeshop until they turned the lights out on us, and she broke up with her boyfriend the next day.”
MULTIPLE people in the notes have told me how important these tags are to them so here’s to keeping it in the main post.
When Elizabeth Bennet is at the lake after rejecting Mr. Collins’ proposal, a flock of geese flew off the pond immediately after Director Joe Wright yelled,“Action!” This was unplanned.
PRIDE AND PREJUDICE dir. Joe Wright
Sometimes I need to remember that all the things I have in my life right now are things I’ve prayed for, manifested and hoped and wished for, and it’s finally here so I need to settle into it and be grateful for it.
Kind of wild to think how full circle life is. How amazing it can be.
I need to reconnect to my roots.
Looking back at this year and even the last two to three years. So much has changed in my life. So much good has come into my life. I’m so grateful for people that have come into my life. And for the ones who’ve stayed. The past few years have been so full of growth, love, and light. I’m just so in awe of everything the universe has given me.
