Visiting the Grand Palace today reminded me of this movie I watched as a teenager, the story of Anna and the King, a governess from England and the King of Siam.
At the end of the film, the Siam Palace, the teaching task is over, and Anna is leaving. She and her son are going back to England. One night before her departure, she met the king with a music box in hand.
"Essentially... music is also a mathematical concept..." Tears had slipped from her eyes. The king looked at her with sadness.
"...Since science can reveal the mysteries of something as wonderful as music...why can't it be calculated for the tutor and the king?" Anna said, her eyes full of doubts, full of unwillingness, full of tears .
"You know... in Siam, everything has to be taken slowly..." the king said softly, "even if the king is anxious, there is no way..."
The waltz sounded, they embraced and danced...
Maybe leaving is the right choice. Leaving it may only add to regret. But I know they will never be alone again. Love will always stay in my heart.
