antithesis at its prime

i guess i started off all wrong for the first post.

for a blog titled "Life is Beautiful" its not a great idea to start with a post which says "its a sad day"...

so to move away from this seemingly depressing state of mine, let me explain why i chose the above title:
its from "godfather". last words of vito corleone, as he lay dying in michael's arms. now dont start thinking that its again some depressing sentence. it wasn't. the entire thing is so well done, the scene, the ambience (you can visualize it all in your mind), the mood, the position in which the godfather leaves the world, what he made and what hes left.. really leaves you mesmerized. indeed as michael later says, that if you can leave the world saying the same sentence, then what the heck, all the troubles now dont matter.
