"Adios"
just finished watching "Lovers in Paris"...a disoriented love story..this is the final week of the series and every scene strikes a cord with me!!
who would have thought that the main characters started at "hello" and ended everything in "goodbye"? sure, every beginning has an end!! that however the love is, still everything could collapse..it's sad, but it's true!
on Vivian: just when you thought that you found the one, a lot of people will try to stop you. probably because they're mad, they don't like you or simply because they love you. these barriers can make you lose hope, although you know that you love each other very much. you think that you can never keep it up because of the thought that you wont be happy livin' together if people that surrounds you are not in favor of you. you will lose hope, you will lose faith, then you will give up the fight and forget the feeling, then you will end up saying goodbye.
on Carlo: it is never easy to let go of some one you love, just when you thought that no one has ever made you feel that way. every last embrace, a part of us dies. you wnat to keep up the fight, but how?? if the one that you've been fighting for has already given up? after goodbye, where will you start picking yourself?
on Martin: accepting is not easy as much as letting go. to love someone and to be loved ny that someone is a great luck for not everyone who love gets love on the rebound. sometimes, you decided to stay although you know and you feel that there is no reason to do so. you keep on telling yourself that things can turn around with time and like a fairy tale that works out in the end. you keep on believing that he/she will come to his/her senses and will love you in return after all that you have done for him/her. it's hard to accept that after all that's been said and done, you are left with nothing but pain and bitter memories. but it's harder to accept that the one you love is in love with someone close to you. you have to swallow your pride and be a friend. but if you can't, you might as well say goodbye and wish them the best to totally let go.
here's what i say: goodbye is never easy. pain, according to Collins is a physical and mental suffering. but to someone who feels pain because of goodbye, it is far beyond any dictionary can defined. you feel pain when you know you've given too much, when all of a sudden you're in the peak of bankrupcy or when love still exist but forbidden to love beacuse he has to go or the other way around.
after goodbye, we are faced with seemingly impossible task of forgetting. we have burdened ourselves long enough but we still can't get out of this emotiuonal trap. let us remember that the more we try to forget someone we love, the more painful letting go will become. sometimes we never had to take that person out of our hearts at all, for he/she will always be there no matter how hard we drive him/her away. it isn't his/her presence that makes it difficult. it is our stubborness to accept our destiny that aligns forgetting next to impossible. we keep a cold face but deep in our hearts, there is still that lingering hope for reconciliation. somehow, we still believe that we can rekindle small embers and relight the fire that once burned in our hearts. these thoughts give us hope but it also breeds the seeds of loneliness and despair. the only way to forget is to accept and the only way to move on is to look ahead and let the footprints of the past, be blown by the wind of time.
when someone says goodbye, think of this way, God usually replaces what is lost and helps you start a from where you've fallen. sure, it won't be exactly the same but who knows? THINGS COULD TURN OUT TO BE EVEN BETTER THAN BEFORE.... after all, TO LOVE SOMEONE IS TO HOLD ON, BUT SOMETIMES IT IS TO LET GO!!!
