"Fear is the path to the dark side: fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering"
i can't help but think Lucas has been influenced by Buddhistic teachings... all the wonderful bits of the light vs dark sides are captured in the apparently simple yet profound lines that Yoda 'enigmatically' spews... absolutely wonderful philosophical stuff.
ever since i was introduced to Star Wars and all the amazing fun... i've always wanted a lightsaber (NB: not the toy but the real thing)... i also want to get hold of a copy of the story in text... and i wouldn't mind having DVDs of the original trilogy and the new as future pressies in case you ever think of getting me something i'd like... but sharing it with me if you do have a copy would be just as nice!!! i also wanted to have my hair long so i could plait it like princess leia and become a jedi... i also wondered if George Lucas published his stories at all? does anyone know? i'd really like to get a copy...
... so many wants... it's terrible i know... "learn to let go, [i] must".
