fiction 2006:

Some time ago the film's makers received another Russian national movie prize, the Golden Eagle Award;

The following is from an email I received yesterday. I thought I would just pass it on:


Don't Break The Elastic!!



Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday. Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older. She is such a simple and honest woman, with so much wisdom in her words!



And, there on television, she said it was "exciting." Regarding body changes, she said there were many, occurring every day...like her breasts. They seem to be in a race to see which will reach her waist, first.

Maya Angelou went on to say:



"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."




"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights."

"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."

"I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life'."




"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."

"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back."

"I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision."

"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."

"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.”

“People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."

"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Please pass these on to at least five other people today.

If you do, you just may boost another person’s self-esteem.

If you don't...the elastic will break and your underpants will fall down around your ankles!
