WOW. I mean, WOOOOWWW.

That's all I need to say about The Two Towers. It's taken me a couple hours after the movie just to settle down, b/c it was so intense. What else? GO SEE IT.

WOW.

Joys That Sting

Oh doe not die, says Donne, for I shall hate

All women so. How false the sentence rings.

Women? But in a life made desolate

It is the joys once shared that have the stings.

To take the old walks alone, or not at all,

To order on pint where I ordered two,

To think of, and then not to make, the small

Time-honoured joke (senseless to all but you);

To laugh (oh, one'll laugh), to talk upon

Themes that we talked upon when you were there,

To make some poor pretence of going on,

Be kind to one's old friends, and seem to care,

While no one (O God) through the years will say

The simplest, common word in just your way.

--C.S. Lewis

REMEMBER

HELEN JOY DAVIDMAN

D. July 1960

Loved Wife of C.S. Lewis

HERE THE WHOLE WORLD (STARS, WATER, AIR,

AND FIELD, AND FOREST, AS THEY WERE

REFLECTED IN A SINGLE MIND)

LIKE CAST OFF CLOTHES WAS LEFT BEHIND

IN ASHES, YET WITH HOPE THAT SHE,

RE-BORN FROM HOLY POVERTY,

IN LENTEN LANDS, HEREAFTER MAY

RESUME THEM ON HER EASTER DAY.

I'm so excited to watch The Two Towers (Part II of the Lord of Rings.) Jason got us tickets to watch it immediately after my final tomorrow. I can hardly contain myself, much less study!

If you don't know what the hype is all about, watch the trailer at the LOTR site (bottom right-hand corner.)

I didn't realize there was this whole underground world of people linked up through blogging. It's incredible. Technology blows me away.
