movie: away from her

wonderful story. beautiful plot. yet slow paced.
44 years of marriage.
everything changed within 30 days, one month. when symptons of sickness shown.
when wife forgets everything, including husband, husband lives in misery and in the memories of his wife.
how sad it is. for one to remember and the other to forget. all the things that happened, all the things they've been through together.
wife starts to love someone else. husband continues to sit in a sofa far away to watch her.
hoping one day she'll remember him and all the things between them.
and it hurt him everytime when he sees her showering love and care towards another man.
while the flowers in his hands, meant for her, are never accepted.
one day, he decides to move on and hope that she will be happy.
when he's going to allow his wife go back to another man's embrace, she remembers everything.
she touched his ears like how she did for the past 44 years.
and they hugged, in tears.


Oh i can fully understand how much a month can change things.
even 44 years of marriage.
the husband said in the movie:"all these that happened made me feel our marriage was a superficial one."
44 years of marriage. superficial. hah.
what about 365 days of friendship?
within one month, a person can forget all the happy moments, forget how important is a person to him, the things he once said, the promises he once made.
and comes back when he remembers.
but what about the people around?
especially those who remembered everything clearly.
they live in misery.
because they live in memories, in their own world, finding substitutions.
however, they never leave. they only wished the happiness of that person.
the wife said:"you would have leave or forsaken me. but you didn't."
to move on is to give up.

i've learnt, not to make any promises (i mean anyhow) when you're an emotional being.
because promises are broken when emotions rule.
i've learnt, not to expect, but to treasure, to enjoy bit by bit, whatever that's given.
and i still remember everything. every single thing that happened. every promises you've made.
every tears dropped. every emotions.
but it seems none of it matters to you anymore. because you've gone so far that i hardly recognise you.
who said that we're best friend first?
it all seemed like it just happened yesterday. when i was smiling in joy, knowing that i have a best friend! even though i was reluctant to acknowledge that at first.
it all seemed like it just happened yesterday, when i came back from school, sent a terrible message to you to cut ties and napped. in the end, you asked me to stay, we cried and reconciled.
it all seemed like it just happened yesterday, when we were shopping happily, laughing and trying to embarrass each other on the streets.
it all seemed like it just happened yesterday, when we both watched our favourite anime, waiting for each other, and you'll countdown from 999999 to start watching it.
the most memorable was the last day of the year, when i predicted what will happen. and it all came true. i predicted we'll turn out to be this way. when you said my biggest fear came true.
i struggled, i prayed, i hoped.
now i only wish that you're happy. even if it means that i have to leave your life.
like that, i can tell others: HOI! we're not superficial friends hor!


okay. this is just another emo post. so sorry.
watched 'away from her' with my sec sch friends. had lots of laughter and fun.
and i want to thank yonghwee and yong guang for carrying my heavy bag. [someone just wanted me to say this....]
