Love Was Action. It Came To You.

You Can't Always Trust What You Think, What You Know ... But You Can Always Trust Your Nature.

That Is One Thing I've Learned, That It Is Possible To Really Understand Things At Certain Points, And Not Be Able To Retain Them, To Be In Utter Confusion Just A Short While Later. I Used To Think That Once You Really Knew A Thing, Its Truth Would Shine On Forever. Now It's Pretty Obvious To Me That More Often Than Not The Batteries Fade, And Sometimes What You Knew Even Goes Out With A Bang When You Try To Call On It, Just Like A Lightbulb Cracking Off When You Throw The Switch.

You See An Absolutely Brilliant Film Later, As An Adult, And You Walk Out Thinking About What To Have For Dinner. Whereas Something Like Jaws Winds Up Having A Huge Effect On Me. If Only My Parents Had Been Taking Me To Kurosawa Films When I Was Eight, But No.

It Makes You Wonder. All The Brilliant Things We Might Have Done With Our Lives If Only We Suspected We Knew How.

But We Cannot Unbraid The Story Of Another Person’s Life And Take Out All The Parts That Don’t Suit Our Purposes And Put Forth Only The Ones That Do.
