Darth Vader made me cry!

Darth VaderThis evening I was off on a mission looking for sad stories about puppies and the such (I’m a bit odd like that… and find it cathartic)… when I came across this blog from a chap reminiscing about his childhood.

He was a huge Star Wars fan… and had the opportunity to met Darth Vader. This blog was extremely well written, and as a child from the early 70’s, I was very aware of the hype and excitement that surrounded the movies - and yes the merchandise too. I wanted to be Princess Leia… and would try desperately in vain to style my hair to look just like hers! Which of course, it never did.

American Beauty

I had always heard your entire life flashes in front of your eyes the second before you die.
First of all, that one second isn’t a second at all, it stretches on forever, like an ocean of time…
