Seeing Each Other

Oct 11, 2020 | By Sharla Moody BK '22

There are few things harder to grapple with in this world than the realization that our loved ones are just as imperfect as everyone else.

On Magic

Feb 14, 2014 | Unknown

Perhaps in the modern world we do not believe

in sorcerers or witchcraft. But we do know what Taylor

Swift means when she says that she was “enchanted”

to meet you. Magic and sorcery have not left this

world. We experience magic in modern love.

Perks of Being a Wallflower, a film based on the book

by Stephen Chbosky, ends with this beautiful, tumblr-

(Logan Lerman): “This is happening, I am here and I

am looking at her. And she is so beautiful. I can see it.

This one moment when you know you’re not a sad story.

You are alive, and you stand up and see the lights

on the buildings and everything that makes you wonder.

And you’re listening to that song and that drive

with the people you love most in this world. And in

this moment I swear, we are infinite.”
