P'mon and I were having a convo about a movie --Heavenly Forest .I came up with two lines that sounded like a poem unintentionally. P'mon couldn't go to bed without fishing them.
And here we are :
Words can always be deceiving
Sometims it doesn't say what your heart is telling
Only kiss can say what your heart is feeling
But without love kiss has no meaning.

นั่งรถไฟไปตู้เย็น
“เรามีโอกาสทำความรู้จักกับผู้คน ได้พบปะสังสรรค์กับด้านดีของเขา และยังไม่ทันที่จะได้เห็นด้านร้าย เราก็ต้องลาจากมาเสียก่อน จริงอยู่ เราไม่ได้รู้จัก ‘จริงๆ’ แต่จำเป็นด้วยหรือที่เราต้องรู้จักทุกคนที่ผ่านเข้าในชีวิต เราคงจะรู้จักทุกคน ‘จริงๆ’ ไม่ได้หรอกละมัง ”
I have been complaining about not able to touch many souls lately and becoming lesser than myself. I guess I have found my answer. The answer is simple. It’s just that I just can’t touch every soul that I meet. Maybe I don’t have to.

ERICA: Look, Harry, here's the problem. I really like you.
HARRY:I really like you.
ERICA:Yeah, but I "love you" like you.I do. I love you.
HARRY: (1)I think maybe you should consider that you're in love with the idea of being in love.
(2) I think that we should consider...maybe we're getting ahead of ourselves.
ERICA: Do you?
HARRY:Yeah.
ERICA: Okay. Oh, God...I'm like the dumb girl who doesn't get it. I've never been the dumb girlbefore. It ain't so great.
HARRY:Let's just calm down. This was justa a meal with a friend.
ERICA:Did you know I called you sevenhours ago?
HARRY:I was gonna call you. I've been jammingall day, it's my first day back.
ERICA:Uh-huh. . .
HARRY:I had these plans before I met you. But Ido like seeing you. I do. I'm alwayssurprised by it.
ERICA:What was I thinking?
HARRY:Maybe you weren't thinking for once andlook what a good time we had. Let's notruin something great.
ERICA:Harry, I won't be good at this.
HARRY:At what?
ERICA:Acting like I don't care.
HARRY:I have never lied to you. I have alwaystold you some version of the truth.
ERICA:The truth doesn't have versions.
HARRY:Can you cut me a little slack? Mylife's been turned upside down.
ERICA:Yeah. Mine too.
HARRY:Then let's each get our bearings.
ERICA:I don't want my bearings. I've had mybearings my whole fucking life. I feltsomething with you that... Oh, you don'twant to-
HARRY:Yes I do.Tell me.
ERICA:I felt something with you, I didn't knowreally existed. You know what that's likeafter a twenty year marriage? To feelsomething for another person that's sooff the charts, that -
Okay, not your problem. This is whyI'm not good in relationships. Youknow writers are like teachers,those who can - do, those who can't- write romantic comedies whereTHIS does not happen in the thirdact...and it certainly does nothappen to a 55 year old woman. In the play I'll be 36 so it won't beas pathetic. I'm just too old to feel crushed.I've written thisfeeling but I never really got it.
You know what this is?
This is heart broken. How's that for impervious?
HARRY:You're killin' me.
ERICA:I just wish it had lasted more than aweek.

Just to be honest about it, I felt a little down. I really thought we were friends. I thought we were closer. I didnt think it was about spending time with someone but we all we can have together. But sometimes I'm wrong,right? Like totally wrong! What else could hurt more than being left out.
But then why being so hard to yourself and others.Why not just enjoy the time that you have and make the best out of it.

Such a painful lyrics
--Goodbye My Alomost Lover--
Goodbye my almost lover.
Goodbye my hopeless dream.
I'm trying not to think about you.
Can't you just let me be.
So long my luckless romance.
My back is turned on you.
Should've known you'd bring me heartache.
Almost lovers always do.
I cannot go to the ocean.
I cannot drive the streets at night.
I cannot wakeup in the morning without you on my mind.
So you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine.
Did I make it that easy to walk right in & out of my life?
Goodbye my almost lover.
Goodbye my hopeless dream.
I'm trying not to think about you.
Can't you just let me be.So long my luckless romance.
My back is turned on you.
Should've known you'd bring me heartache.
Almost lovers always do
I never want to see you unhappy.
I thought you'd want the same for me.
Goodbye my almost lover.
Goodbye my hopeless dream.
-A Fine Frenzy

That's my boy..Or was
NATHAN: (smiles) Stop it. (His eyes are closed and he isn’t even facing her.)
HALEY: (turns her head to him) What?
NATHAN: Whatever you were worrying about. Just stop.
HALEY: (impressed) How do you know I’m worried? You didn’t even open your eyes.
NATHAN: (smiles) You think I need to see you with my eyes to know what’s going on with you? What’s on your mind?
That's my boy. Or was. Or maybe he has never been mine at all.
But it was like that with me and him. I always remember what happen between us.
In a bus sitting next to each other.
Me : (slightly sigh)
Him : What's wrong?
Me: What do you mean? I didn't say anything.
Him : Well, that sigh tells alot. So tell me.
All the girls in the world can never say no to someone who is so listening, caring and understanding, right? So how could I?

Earth's Album
Something from Yann Arthus-Bertrand's perspective in TIME.
***************************************************************************
Earth's Album
Sunday, Jun. 30, 2002 By MARYANN BIRD/LONDON
The best picture the world has ever seen wasn't snapped by a professional photographer but by a man of science, the former U.S. astronaut William Anders. Taken in December 1968 from Apollo 8 — the first manned vehicle in lunar orbit — the image is of the earth rising above the moon's arid, lifeless horizon. Revealing the planet for the first time as a pristine blue and white jewel in the black void of space, the picture became an instant classic, inspiring poets and becoming a symbol of the ecology movement.
"It is truly the most beautiful photo ever taken," says Yann Arthus-Bertrand, 56, a French aerial photographer who for the past 10 years has been snapping shots of the planet from slightly closer range. He has taken more than 100,000 pictures of the earth in the past decade alone, capturing the stunning patterns and characteristics of the natural and manmade worlds. From those thousands, Arthus-Bertrand has chosen an evocative 155, enlarged them to more than 2 m wide, weatherproofed them and assembled them in a free, outdoor exhibition entitled "Earth from the Air: A Photographic Portrait of Our Planet." On display till late September in the east garden of London's Natural History Museum, the exhibition will travel around Britain. With duplicate prints, it is also running in France, Poland, Sweden and Germany and is due shortly in Norway, Russia, Hungary and Lebanon.
But Arthus-Bertrand's work is about much more than pretty pictures. The Parisbased photographer has assigned himself "the toughest project" — the open-ended task of recording the earth's environment as a benchmark for the future and accompanying his photos with words and statistics that place his images in a decidedly environmentalist context. "My job is to do a very strong picture that will give an emotional response," he says. "And the text is very, very important. My picture is nothing without it. The message is important."
The message is sustainable development, and respecting people and nature alike by changing production and consumption habits. Humans, says Arthus- Bertrand, have made their mark everywhere on the planet, particularly in the past 50 years. Through population growth and technological progress, they have dramatically transformed the earth's myriad landscapes. Arthus-Bertrand's themes in his photographic "state of the planet" cover the gamut of environmental and human- rights concerns: climate change, health care, food production, pollution, endangered species, water use, poverty, literacy, insecticides, garbage mountains, energy sources, women's rights, population issues, wildlife poaching, desertification and deforestation, and more.
A photo of a Finnish greenhouse in winter, eerily illuminated by artificial lighting, emphasizes the often uneasy relationship beween nature and agriculture. One of U.S. wheat fields prompts a refiection on agribusiness and the controversy surrounding biotechnology. Colorful bottle racks snapped in Germany bring comment about bottled water, plastic containers and the scourge of alcoholism. A shot of the world's largest offshore wind farm, in Denmark, raises the issue of fossil-fuel alternatives. A market in Kenya, where Western-donated goods are sold, illustrates the economic chasm between rich and poor nations. Arthus-Bertrand plans to work on the project for the rest of his life. "It's impossible to finish it," he says. "What you see here is the beginning. Other photographers will carry it on." To help them — and interested scientists — monitor the places he has visited, Arthus-Bertrand provides precise geographical coordinates. Most of his shots were taken from helicopters, in which he has clocked up more than 3,000 hours. "I'm not really an aerial photographer," he says. "I'm a photographer who uses helicopters." He considers them "magic toys," providing access to remote locations and the ability to hover over a landscape for long periods of time. "With a plane, you just steal the photograph as you fly over."
Arthus-Bertrand's environmental journey, which has so far included scores of countries, began in central France, where, as a young man, he managed a nature reserve. At 30, he moved to Kenya with his wife, Anne, to study lions in the Masai Mara reserve. There, he produced the first of some 70 books of photographs and, working as a hot-air balloon pilot taking tourists on wildlife-observation flights, developed a love for the vertical perspective. "People seeing the exhibition can see that, from a bird's-eye view, the world is a beautiful place," he says. "Close up, it is clear there are serious problems — and these are powerfully illustrated by the stark facts and statistics presented. Together they show why we should be concerned about the state of the world." He adds: "A photograph is so strong. Not everyone is going to think like me, but I speak with my photographs. It's easier that way. It's the earth itself that's a work of art, and we are all a part of nature. We choose the landscape of our soul."
From Arthus-Bertrand's perspective, his most powerful photograph is not of a Brazilian slum, a Philippine village inundated by mud or a quake-ravaged Turkish town. Rather, it is a view of the Ukrainian city of Pripiat in snow. Three kilometers from the now-closed Chernobyl nuclear plant, Pripiat is a ghost town, emptied of its 50,000 people. His feelings about the planet, though, are perhaps symbolized by the main photo used to promote the exhibition. Taken from above a mangrove swamp in Voh, New Caledonia, it captures a huge, naturally formed green heart.

Yann Arthus-Bertrand In Time
I went to YANN's work in "Earth From the Above" exhibition at Central World. It was so amazing and I just loved it the very first minute I saw it. And he's become one of my fav photographers since then. I really like his style, u know. The nature from a very wide angle, the contrast of the colors. Kobkab said it's the called "layer" style. I mean I always like taking pix like that too but it didnt look that amazing..haha. The nature helps sometimes. But sometimes he just turned simple sprinkles to one beautiful picture and I love it.
You see his pix and you realize how beatiful this planet is.
I found an article about him in "Time" and this is what they said :
SERGE PICARD/VU FOR TIME
YANN ARTHUS-BERTRAND: At his home outside Paris, the environmentalist and aerial photographer works in a tree house—as always, close to nature but up in the air. "I hope to continue [this project] forever," he says
The Long Shot
A God's Eye View of the Situation
By RICHARD LACAYO
Posted Tuesday, February 17, 2003Yann Arthus-Bertrand is an aesthete with the soul of a moralist. He uses the beauty of the world to beguile you into a photograph in which a larger lesson awaits. His lesson is about the planet in jeopardy. For the past decade the 57-year-old Frenchman has been taking aerial shots over deserts, volca- noes, rain forests and cities. He turns natural formations and highway interchanges into nearly abstract, high-luster photographs—and also into food for thought. If his pictures are beautiful, the realities they point to are not: deforestation, desertification, unbridled development. "Each photograph," he explains, "has something to say about our environment."
Arthus-Bertrand has been spreading his message in a series of best-selling Earth from Above photo books and a traveling outdoor show of nearly 150 4-ft. by 6-ft. prints accompanied by captions that link the images to the environmental issues at stake. Since the show was first mounted in Paris four years ago, it has been seen by millions of people in 53 cities. To find a project of comparable ambition, you have to look back to "The Family of Man," the milestone 1955 museum show that toured the world to illustrate common threads in the human fabric. But that exhibition involved scores of photographers. Arthus-Bertrand spearheads his own effort, though even his most delicate images require something like a paramilitary operation—his team now totals 15—to handle planning and logistics. Some nations, like Saudi Arabia and China, have yet to give him flyover permission. "One problem with doing aerial photography," he explains dryly, "is that people think you are a spy."

Japan tips
I did some reserch before I left for Japan and some info is way too useful to just get simply deleted from my fav link. Frankly I haven't done reading it coz it is a little too long and I normally dont spend much time reading something really long on the internet. Even though I might not go back there and read again, the info is still interesting. I saved it instead and hopefully one day I'll get back to it.
