in life in general ... music & nature move me

in people ... honesty, kindness, strength, & sincerity move me

The limbless man in this film is Nick Vujicic who does a stunning inspirational talk that he travels the world with. I show my students this of his. It moves me every time -

have not been but would like to be moved...

***thank you i needed this

i saw this not too long ago and it moved me to tears. thank you for sharing it here, it was just as beautiful this time.

I have a niece who was born with one arm, and who I think the world of. She is a hero to me and many others and watching her ride is one of the things that moves me more than I can say.

Thank you for this thread, Nat, and thank you Tazz and Vintage Femme for your comments. I hope you're having a good night. :-)

***i'm trying... feeling my loneliness... so i'm coping... thanx

wishing you peaceful slumbers when you get there... (f)

The cries of a new born baby-safely in the arms of its mother.

People-family/friends/strangers who have your back..they care enough to defend you..there when you need them the most..count me as one of those people.

Driving on a lonely country road...seeing nature,the trees,the animals,the mountains and the open sky..happy being alive,brings me to tears.

Looking up at the night skies,our galaxy..just beautiful.

Death-Watching family cry over the passing of a loved one moves me to tears.

Sad movies...and sad songs...Adele "Hello"

When me and the wife argue :bigcry:

Money...lots of it!

:D

:) yep - still moves me. Loved that movie. Little River Phoenix - wish he'd lived longer.

I only recently discovered Leontyne Price while looking for a song for the soundtrack on "A Room with a View." From that (also gorgeous) song, I clicked on this one:



And it also was beautiful and seemed so full of longing, that I thought to look up the story behind the song. Long story short, there's folktale about a rusalka- a sort of water spirit in Eastern European folklore across several countries - that appears to be the original story behind "The Little Mermaid." This folktale was made into an opera, and the "song to the moon" is similar in intent to disney's "part of your world." Basically the rusalka wishing she could be a mortal woman because love for a mortal man has filled her with longing.

Anyway, I thought it was an interesting discovery.

And the singer, Leontyne Price, she herself, her voice, is gorgeously moving.

Getting all teary eyed
 

Classical music, vulnerability, "le mot juste"

Katniss~~

Charming sensitivity, clever witticism, honorable and chivalrous behavior, the ability to know the subtle difference between sensual and sexual prowess and the line of vulnerability between them both, and the fine art of romance - in a way that is only unique to them.

People who take active positions against dictatorial adversaries and vote for policies that weave social stability for all sectors of society.

This is what moves me:

People who care about people. People willing to stand up for the right thing and do the right thing.

Being under pressure...that's what moves me..like the song by david bowie.Makes me wanna do a music video dancing down those eerie hallways of the cecil hotel in downtown los angeles,california.

I'm definitely watching to much YouTube these days.:missing:

Oh I remember that hotel,back in 1979 that was called home.

Nature... always nature. Vulnerability that is courageous. What my ears hear as perfect music. My grandson. My ghosts.

Saturday Night Live (SNL).


I seriously like/love how the creators of SNL will take on political hot topics and show the world just how redickulous and effing dangerous apolitical views can be.

Here is one of the latest SNL skits:




I wonder if they will break out the "New Sheriff in Town" skit concerning the fake sheriff's badge Mr. Perp-walker was showing off recently. We shall see.


In other news: Please vote like your life depends on it because it does. Democracy in the US is at stake and I seriously want for everybody in our country to denounce the GOP by voting for Democracy that belongs to us all -- not the dictator wanna-be's or election deniers of the GOP (.....).
