Post a Day for 1/5/13:

“Take the first sentence from your favorite book and make it the first sentence of your post.”

—

“A blur of rushing images ‘Begin at the beginning’ is the phrase.”

And this is how my favorite book of all time starts. That book is “What Dreams May Come” and I’ve been in love ever since I first read it years ago. The movie version was good, but I found the deleted ending to be better.

Sometimes I think that the first line is a great place to start. Especially these days since I’ve been moving my old LiveJournal post entires into my Day One archive one at a time. The key phrase is all about a blur of rushing images. There are bits of my past that I’ve forgotten about for a very long time and now that I’ve uncorked them and browsing them they all tend to flow back over me like a blur of rushing images.

I still have eight hundred entries left to move over into Day One. After that, then maybe more trips down memory lane. There was a lot of material and much of it I’ll never share with anyone, but out of all of it, perhaps there will be something.
