just no love

You have everything, talent, fame, marriage... what more?
--Love.

Where does it come from, the unstoppable passion and unspeakable longing in Dupree's performance?
——The black hole in her heart, the blank that has never been filled.

During the performance, her heart is filled, and the energy of love flows through her body, radiating a dazzling light. The music stopped, where did she go for the warmth, the unconditional and unreasonable warmth that exists forever? Leaving the cello, she is just a child, a child who can't love herself and doesn't know how to love others.

She finally left the cello, a cruel ending. However, is it the impermanence of fate or the abandonment of herself in her heart that created all this? She hurts others, and hurts herself more deeply, until she is irreparable.

I hope there will never be, hurt and be hurt. Only, love and be loved.

    I prefer the original name "Hilary and Jiqilin" to the few translated names I know well. It has nothing to do with the cello, and it has nothing to do with the flute. It has nothing to do with sisterhood.

    People cannot be defeated by things like loneliness. Don't use loneliness as a false excuse for everything.
