So one of my favorite bloggers / youtubers Kassie (http://www.cloudyapples.ca/) made a really cool video a while back (here) called 'things that make me Feel.' I don't know why, but this video is one of those things that has just stuck with me. I was so inspired by it that I wanted to make my own list of things that make me feel.
These things stir something really deep in me; they are very essential to my person. I think that by writing them down and sharing them with the world, maybe you guys will be able to understand me better.
Without further ado, let's begin.
Things That Make Me Feel.
1. O Captain, My Captain! - Walt Whitman
O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done,
The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won,
The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring;
But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
O Captain! my Captain! rise up and hear the bells;
Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and ribbon’d wreaths—for you the shores a-crowding,
For you they call, the swaying mass, their eager faces turning;
Here Captain! dear father!
This arm beneath your head!
It is some dream that on the deck,
You’ve fallen cold and dead.
My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still,
My father does not feel my arm, he has no pulse nor will,
The ship is anchor’d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done,
From fearful trip the victor ship comes in with object won;
Exult O shores, and ring O bells!
But I with mournful tread,
Walk the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
Also in conjunction with this poem is the scene from Dead Poet's Society. I found a YouTube link to it here.
2. Lava
Listen to the song here.
I have a dream I hope will come true
That you're here with me and I'm here with you
I wish that the earth, sea, the sky up above-a
Will send me someone to lava
3. Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani (Movie)
Obviously, I can't find a link to this. But watch it. The soundtrack is particularly phenomenal.
4. Lucky Thirteen
A short dance film. Watch it here.
5. Jane Eyre (Charlotte Bronte)
I am no bird; an no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.

Kind of a random assortment, huh? I left it without explanation on purpose. I think that the mystery behind why these things make me feel the way that they do is intriguing. I can't figure out why myself. Maybe you can help me out with that.
Love and light,
Mal
