Romanticism

When I took a walk, I could smell the fresh cut grass aroung my neighborhood. I closed my eyes for a while and could hear a dog barking and a car drive by me. Im sure the car was thinking I was a nut job for standing there, but I never knew how much I took for granted. When people say, if you loose a sense, your other senses take over. That is very true. If i didnt have my eyes closed, I would have never smelled the dog poop next to me. While I was walking with my eyes OPEN, i never noticed that I could walk under all the branches in my neighborhood. Some of the perks of being short finally came out when i was looking for little details.

Romanticism, from what I thought, had to do with love and relationships and all that goo go gaga stuff. Little did I know, it had to do with the Roman Era, and around the time of the French Revolution. I also had no idea that Romanticim was incorporated in the Star Wars soundtrack. I didnt know that Romanticism also had to do with Gothic Romance either. What i wrote in my notes, didnt really have to do with this stuff. Like I said, /i thought it was more about Love than Historic events
