Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Judy



Judy has her own desire
She wants to step into your fire
She wants you tangled in her web
She wants the flame never to tire

She's wanting
She's tripping
And she's falling...
Can you catch her...
Now she's calling...
Can you hear her...
She's falling down
[ Lyrics accessible from http://www.rare-lyrics.com ]

Judy wants to love so much
Can it release her from her hurt
Judy's dreaming of your touch
She'll smother you till it's too much

She's wanting
She's tripping
And she's falling...
Can you catch her...
Now she's calling...
Can you hear her...
She's falling down

She's falling down
She wants to drown
Within your heart
She'll never part
She's falling down

Ladder of Years by Anne Tyler

Note: Delia was reading F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatzby.

She came to the end of her book, but she kept rereading the final sentence till her eyes blurred over with tears. Then she placed the book on the floor and reached up to switch the lamp off so she could sit weeping in the dark-the very last step in her daily routine.

She wept without a thought in her head, heaving silent sobs that racked her chest and contorted her mouth. Every few minutes she blew her nose on the strip of toilet paper she kept under her pillow. When she felt completely drained, she gave a deep, shuddering sigh and said aloud, "Ah well." Then she blew her nose one last time and lay down to sleep.

It amazed her that she always slept so soundly

The Hours by Michael Cunnningham

Note: Laura Brown is reading Mrs. Dalloway

She will read one more page. One more page, to calm and locate herself, then she'll get out of bed...

She inhales deeply. It is so beautiful; it is so much more than.. well, than almost anything. really. In another world, she might have spent her whole life reading. But this is the new world, the rescued world-there's not much room for idleness.

Keep Smiling, Ms Beautiful



Lift your head, baby, don't be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You'll get by with a smile
You can't win at everything but you can try.

Baby, you don't have to worry
'Coz there ain't no need to hurry
No one ever said that there's an easy way
When they're closing all their doors
And they don't want you anymore
This sounds funny but I'll say it anyway.

Girl I'll stay through the bad times
Even if I have to fetch you everyday
I'll get by if you smile
You can never be too happy in this life.

In a world where everybody
Hates a happy ending story
It's a wonder love can make the world go round
And don't let it bring you down
And turn your face into a frown
You'll get along with a little prayer and a song.

(Too doo doo...)
Let me hear you sing it
(Too doo doo...)

In a world where everybody
Hates a happy ending story
It's a wonder love can make the world go round
But don't let it bring you down
And turn your face into a frown
You'll get along with a little prayer and a song.

Lift your head, baby, don't be scared
Of the things that could go wrong along the way
You'll get by with a smile
Now it's time to kiss away those tears goodbye

(Too doo doo...)
Let me hear you sing it
(Too doo doo...)
