Feb. 27th, 2001 12:33 pmI can't believe I'm crying because of John F. Kennedy...
I'm just watching some report on Jackie O.'s life and I can't stop crying. What tragedy. In a way I'm glad that she died before she had to witness her son's death as well. I think I can understand why the Americans feel so much with the Kennedys. Yes, I do... And JFK was a great man. I mean, I'm certain that he had his dirty secrets as well, but at least he showed the correct face to the public. He did not embarrass himself with malapropisms and bombarding Iraq. He said "Let us begin..."
But still... this is weird. Not that I've never heard of all this. Why does it move me so? It seems to me as if crying about something like this gives me an excuse for the sadness deep inside of me.
La tristesse durera toujours...
