amazing one !!
clip:
there is a pleasure in the pathless woods
there is a rapture on the lonely shore
there is society, where none intrudes
by the deep sea, and the music in its roar
i love not man the less, but nature more
no phone no pool no pets no cigarettes
ultimate freedom
An extremist .An aesthetic(审美的） voyager（旅行者）
whose home is the road
so now , after two rambleing years comes the final and greatest adventure.
the climactic battle to kill the false being within
and victoriously conclude the spiritual revolution
no longer to be poisoned by civilization , he flees
and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild
it should not be denied that being footloose has always exhilarated us
it is associated in or minds with escape
from history and oppression and law and irksome obligations
Absolute freedom
and the road has always led west
Rather than love , than money , than faith
than fame , than fairness
give me truth.
sister: from as long ago as Chris and I could remember,
there have been daily of rage in our house
Violence that we were forced to witness. It was very real.
But it was also like theatre
They cast us as both judges and the accused.
Some people feel like they don't deserve love
They walk away quietly into empty spaces , trying to close the gaps to the past.
The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally , the chance to feel strong.
Now, I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here.
And I also know how important it is in life :
"not necessarily to be strong, but to feel strong, to measure yourself at least once,
to find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions,
facing the blind ,deaf stone alone
with nothing to help you , but your hands and your own head."
Song:
Such is the way of the world
You can never know
Just where to put all your faith . And how will it grow ?
Gonna rise up
Burning back holes in dark memories
Gonna rise up
Turning mistakes into gold.
Hey!Such is the passage of time . Too fast to fold.
And suddenly swallowed by signs Lo and behold
Gonna rise up
Find my direction magnetically
Gonna rise up
Throw down my ace in the hole
You know , big mountains, rivers, sky ,game
Just be out there in it. you know?
In the wild.
sister:
Instincts that seem to sense the threat of a loss so huge and irrevocable that the mind balks at taking its measure
I'd begin to wonder if I can understand all that Chris is saying any longer
but I catch myself and remember that
these are not the parents he grew up with
but people softened by the forced reflection that comes with loss.
Still,everything Chris is saying has to be said.
And I trust for him that everything he is doing has to be done.
What if I were smiling and running into your arms ?
Would you see then
what I see now
