(328/365) “Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion’s starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don’t see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it’s not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it’s always there – fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know, none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge – they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love actually is all around.” - Love Actually
Last night we had the pleasure of watching the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra perform the award-winning score live to Love Actually while the film played in high definition on a giant screen at the Riverside Theatre.

"We seldom think of November in terms of beauty or any other specially satisfying tribute. November is simply that interval between colorful and dark. Then, nearly every year, come a few November days of clear, crisp weather that makes one wonder why November seldom gets its due." - Hal Borland, November
