Love Actually is...

Love Actually premiered on TV on Sunday. My assiduous housemates, in a rare moment of sanity, blew careless abandon to a slew of looming deadlines, and switched on the television set.

I love Love Actually, for the warm and fuzzy feelings (WAFF(s)) it brings on whenever I watch it. I am touched the portrayal of the possibilities, the freedom and the bitterness of Love. In short, love actually inspires us to hope; always.

A Waffy quote, at the beginning of the movie...

Whenever I get gloomy with the state of the world, I think about the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport. General opinion's starting to make out that we live in a world of hatred and greed, but I don't see that. It seems to me that love is everywhere. Often it's not particularly dignified or newsworthy, but it's always there - fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers, as far as I know none of the phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate or revenge - they were all messages of love. If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find that love actually is all around
