Blog Changes


Twilight thoughts f0r these days....Blogger is changing...now they post our pictures on picasa....maybe we don´t want that, maybe some people want copyright on their pictures....Now it seems that we have to buy more image space if we use all out quota. Had problems pasting and uploading photos, others have other or the same problems...I received an invitation to contribute to my own blog???very odd. What happening to Blogger...do you want us to stay? There are I hear more changes planned, ....but don´t forget your bloggers......

The Passion


Good Friday, lots of twilight thoughts on the crucificion, every channel is showing some film or other, the religous parades in Sevilla, really makes this time quite intense.
I watched for the first time,"The Passion"by Mel Gibson, it was a strong film, I think the best and most realistic version I have seen, before the film I liked most was " The Greatest Story Ever Told".
I wanted to see this film for so long,but people put me off, saying it was bloody and horrific. However, to crucify someone is a bloody and horrific act, so I think the film portrays the awfulness so well. I cried during the film, it touched my soul....therefore I think Mel Gibson got it exactly right. We are meant to cry, and shudder and close our eyes at the pain endured. It is for us to remember.....and I did.
