Love and Life

Before Sunrise and then Before Sunset

28 Hotel Rooms should be the compression of the two movies also drawing out the picture of two people simply hooked together out of nowhere but simultaneously struggled from/fooled by reality.

To love and to be loved.
Simple as it is to have two people so closely connected that it can just happen between nights and seconds.
Problem is people always expect it to be totally naive and pure that forgot how realities sometimes blind our eyes and how much we are afraid to be hurt.

To suffer from waiting. To be fade out gradually after time passes.
To have forgotten the passion at first which triggered the start of the love story.
To be scared by the sudden. To be afraid that arguments and hate come along when a relationship begins.
To be fooled by the romanticism. To wonder what is real and unreal.
To be reluctant to change the current situation.

So we try to stay simple before it gets complicated.

But emotions rarely remain simple and constant.
And they slowly grow into different more emotions and temper.
Just like love being fermented into layers.
Bitter but sweet. Painful but warm.

Right in between the breaths, sadness and happiness are more like playing hide and seek.

Some people choose to fool themselves and let things flow in whatever directions.
Some people choose to end things before they turn ugly.
Some people surrender to what existed already and give up those appeared unreal.

When people think they can be relieved, this is probably the moment that memories and thoughts start to kill.

It's true that the movies were sad but sweet. Somehow regrets make them so realistic and beautiful in a way you can almost feel it's happening.

Memory is a wonderful thing if you don't have to deal with the past.
Stupid but beautifully said.
