Before Sunset

I love this movie. :)


There was this scene in the movie where Celine said something that really struck me.

People just have an affair, or even... entire relationships...

They break up and they forget!

They move on like they would

have changed a brand of Cereals!

I feel I was never able to forget

anyone I've been with.

Because each person have...

you know,

specific qualities.

You can never replace anyone.

What is lost is lost.

Each relationship, when it ends,

really damages me.

I haven't fully recovered.

That's why I'm very careful with

getting involved, because...

It hurts too much!

Even getting laid!

I actually don't do that...

I will miss of the person

the most mundane things.

Like I'm obsessed with little things.

Maybe I'm crazy, but...

When I was a little girl, my mom

told me that I was always late to school.

One day she followed me to see why...

I was looking at chestnuts

falling from the trees,

rolling on the sidewalk, or...

ants, crossing the road...

the way a leaf casts a shadow

on a tree trunk...

Little things.

I think it's the same with people.

I see in them little details,

so specific to each other,

that move me, and that I miss, and...

will always miss.

You can never replace anyone,

because everyone is made of such

beautiful specific details.

Like I remember the way...

your beard has a little

bit of red in it.

And how the sun was

making it glow that...

that morning, right before you left.

I remember that, and...

I missed it! I'm really crazy, right?

Well said.. real and beautiful. =D
