Past Lives

"It's like planting two trees in one pot. Our roots need to find their place." Just watched the film. Never I've been so moved. The relatability of the story to my life is so uncanny. You get someone. And then you lose them. Maybe you'll get to meet them again, most probably in a different dynamic. But will it be the same? I want it so hard to be so. But one can only hope for the impossible. In the film, when Hae leaves in the end, Nora cries. I just started wondering, did she cry? I don't know. We were childhood friends, transformed into something much more pure and profound, and then suddenly one day, it just withered away. She told me that she cried for a week when I left, but I'm still not sure. Maybe I've made myself comfortable in this pain. The pain was unbearable at that time, but it went away a little with time. But I still crave her presence, wondering if the scent of her sweetness and that innocent face will still faze me in the most grand way possible if it just once appeared out of the blue. It's quite surprising that that one person makes you hate the feeling of love, but not them, even after what they did to you. Not that this film commends to the most recent line, but I'm just saying. This film made me feel things I never wanted to feel before. This one will remain close to me forever.
