Blueberry Night

"How far is the distance between love and not love?
How can I measure that distance?
A bunch of keys, a piece of blueberry pie, or a trip?"

After half a year, winter has turned into summer. On Saturday afternoon, I finally finished watching "Blueberry Night" quietly in the small dark room at home.

-why do you keep the keys? you should just throw them out.
-no...no i couldn't do that.
-why not?
-if i threw these keys away, then those doors will be close forever .
that shouldn't up for me to decide, should it?

He said he couldn't throw away those keys. Because if he threw them away, those doors would never have a chance to be opened. It shouldn't be up to him.

He added that sometimes the door would not open even though the key was still there. Sometimes the door opens and the person you're looking for is no longer there.

Finally he threw away his own key.

-i guess i'm just looking for a reason.
-well, for my observations, sometimes it better of not knowing,
and other times there's no reason to be found.
-everything has a reason.
-Um..?so it's like these pies and cakes.
at the end of every night, cheese cakes and the apple pie are always completely gone.
the peachpie and the chocolate mousse cake are nearly finished.
but there always are whole blueberry pies left , untouched.
-so what's wrong with the blueberry pie?
-it's nothing wrong with the blueberry pie, it's just people make the other choices.
you can not blame the blueberry pie...it's just no one wants it.

Does everything happen for a reason?

Why is blueberry pie not liked?

Actually, I believe that everything has its reason.

It's just that a lot of times there's really no need to ask why.

how do you say goodbye to someone you can't imagine living without?
i didn't say goodbye, i didn't say anything. i just walked away.
at the end of that night, i decided to take the longest way to cross the street.

I like that love-hate story the most.

Hate hard enough, love true enough.

The beauty who can gamble said,

trust everyone, but always cut cards. the best thing my father ever taught me.
you know what that means?
it means never turst anybody.

Trust others, but still cut cards.

Maybe her dad just told her that a good habit would save her a lot.

Belief is a kind of ability, because there are many things that can only be obtained by faith, but not by non-belief.

The music is very nice.
