]]> Comment on The Diving Bell and The Butterfly by R. V. Fujita http://purpleskybaby.wordpress.com/2008/02/10/the-diving-bell-and-the-butterfly/#comment-18 R. V. Fujita Mon, 16 Jun 2008 08:08:27 +0000 http://purpleskybaby.wordpress.com/?p=20#comment-18 I loved "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly", but the movie I'd rather see is "My Stroke of Insight", which is the amazing bestselling book by Dr Jill Bolte Taylor. It is an incredible story and there's a happy ending. She was a 37 year old Harvard brain scientist who had a stroke in the left half of her brain. The story is about how she fully recovered, what she learned and experienced, and it teaches a lot about how to live a better life. Her TEDTalk at TED dot com is fantastic too. It's been spread online millions of times and you'll see why!

In the beginning he lived with the princess in the tower, but later in the dream he seemed to have been outside all along, waiting for her. And in a dream-logic way he was often two princes, which she had to choose between. Sometimes the princess chose the handsome prince, and sometimes the ugly one. Either way, her heart was broken. And whomever she picked, the dream’s ending never changed. The best friend, the one whose invitation had been lost, always tried to follow the princess. But the gray dragon woke up and swallowed her, and liked her taste so much that it came after the rest of them, hungry for more. From inside its stomach, the best friend looked out through the dragon’s eyes, and spoke with its mouth, swearing it would find the princess and punish her for leaving a friend behind.
