On the street where you live.

Have you ever seen My Fair Lady?
If not, you should add it to your list of "movies to see"
simply because it is fabulous.

There is a song in this movie
(which was originally on broadway, starring the wonderful Julie Andrews)
that is sung by a man in love with the heroine.
he sings:

"I have often walked down this street before,
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before. 
All at once am I Several stories high. 
Knowing I'm on the street where you live." 

Such a true statement. 
how a person can feel immensely better by just being in the vicinity of the one they love. 
i have witnessed this to be true. 

there just so happens to be a house at the end of my street that has a magical feeling to it.
the beauty it gives off always reminds me of this song, and of the feeling it describes. 


and having it illuminated makes it just a little more magical.
