grabbed this from someone's blog :) enjoy!
A girl went to a party and she ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone. She wasn’t afraidbecause it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away.As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger.When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided to take it.However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her.She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God’s protection.Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness and security wrapped round her, she felt as though someone was walking with her.When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley just twenty minutes after she had been there.Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been her, she began to weep.Thanking the Lord for her safety and to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station.She felt she could recognize the man,so she told them her story. The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him.She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down and confessed.The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her. She asked if they would ask the man one question.Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her.When the policeman asked him, he answered, “Because she wasn’t alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her.”Amazingly, whether you believe or not,you’re never alone.
PS: God is always there in yourheart and loves you no matter what. Praise God.

Stardust rocks!
haha..romance, fantasy, comedy..all 3 blended so beautifully..
definitely, stardust has accomplished what stars do best! it totally outshines any movie now!
how nice of it to end with a beautiful quote and a song of equal beauty!
Narrator: "A man can not find immortality unless he has the heart of a star, and Yvaine gave her entire heart to him.""All the stars are coming out tonight.
They're lighting up the sky tonight.
For you, for you"
Rule The World, Take That
Yvaine: "You know when I said I knew little about love? That wasn't true. I know a lot about love. I've seen it, centuries and centuries of it, and it was the only thing that made watching your world bearable. All those wars. Pain, lies, hate... It made me want to turn away and never look down again. But when I see the way that mankind loves... You could search to the furthest reaches of the universe and never find anything more beautiful. So yes, I know that love is unconditional. But I also know that it can be unpredictable, unexpected, uncontrollable, unbearable and strangely easy to mistake for loathing, and... What I'm trying to say, Tristan is... I think I love you. Is this love, Tristan? I never imagined I'd know it for myself. My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange - no fits. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine."
haha..the mouse was so cute at this part!
i love the movie!
