love is crazy

I saw two moving pictures recently. The scene of a couple walking on the street very intimately is the scene in the movie "Crazy in Love", so I looked for it. At first I felt very sweet, that kind of love makes people nostalgic and hard to let go, but in the end it was very sad. In the end, is it caused by the inability to be together in a foreign relationship, and people need actual lovers who can be touched? Or is love itself like this, and one day the enthusiasm will burn out, or it will be exhausted by reality, and there will be no more feelings? If life is just like the first time, is it really like this? So what if there is no distance barrier, always together? Eventually you will lose your enthusiasm. I remembered a sentence I once saw: I had known that there would be a difference, so I said sorry at the beginning.

Anna, a British girl who went to the United States to study, fell in love with her classmate Jacob, and wrote him a letter to express her love. She wrote at the end of the letter, please don't think of me as a lunatic. She probably thought she was in love too crazy. Later, when Jacob asked her to meet, she asked if he was frightening him, and Jacob happened to be crazy in love. following her. They both like Paul Simmon's songs, and their favorite album is Graceland. He asked her to read something to him, saying that he wanted to listen to what she wrote, and she said that he had never read his own writing to anyone else, and he was the first. So she read a passage she wrote: "I thought that I knew everything about it, but I didn't. What I saw was only the surface, I didn't realize that the strong and precious desire in it was longing, I didn't realize that the inner desire is sometimes better than the inner desire. The whole is more important, and the concept of the whole is often out of reach, because the whole you think is the divided part, what exactly is in the middle is unknown in the past, and it is not clear now.”

Then Anna wrote "I think you..." on the paper and handed it to him. After he took it, he wrote something on it and handed it back to her. She looked at it and smiled happily. It's a pity that I don't know what they wrote, and the lens didn't give the content. Reminds me of some wonderful things someone once said to me, and it's also a way of talking that I like, whether speaking the same language or not. Later, she took him downstairs, and he came back. They touched each other's hands through the glass door. It was a very beautiful picture. I really liked the hand movement in some of the movies, but also wish he opened the door and kissed her. What followed was a flurry of happy hours, lots of intimate time with them hanging out, shopping, having sex.

Later Anna had to go back to China and her visa time was up. But she was reluctant to leave him, so she didn't go back on time and left after a few months. When parting, Jacob gave Anna a bracelet with the word patient on it. Anna gave him a notebook with all kinds of things from their beginning to the present. She said, "If we condensed everything from our past into this book, it would be a book of love." I saw a drawing of the chair that Jacob designed and made for Anna, and there was some writing on it. Character. It was their happy time, and their love for each other.

When she came to the United States again, Jacob prepared their favorite whisky and put it on the chair, and happily took her to the airport with a bunch of flowers, but she was sent back because of the detention record, and she was sent back for life. Entry is not allowed. So Jacob had to visit her often in London, and sent her a chair, and they spent a short happy time together. Subsequent applications are rejected and cannot be released. Although Jacob would go to meet her, it was too far away to see each other often. Missing makes you lonely, your temper worsens, and you lose your patience. The two have other lovers, but no matter what, they will suddenly feel very lonely when they are happy, as if they will never be happy without each other.

One day Anna called Jacob and said, "I have something very important, you listen to me, it doesn't seem like this feeling will go away, it's always there, and I can't go on with my life." Jacob said : "You agreed at the time." Probably to agree that both of them can interact with others. Anna said: "But my feelings for you can no longer be found in other people, except you. We should be together, this feeling is very strong, I think we should get married, this is the only choice now, I don't want to regret For life. As long as this (marriage) only takes half a year to return to the United States, then we can be together."

So Jacob left his American lover and went to London, and they got married. The wedding vows said: "We will remember this day forever, and never let anything destroy our relationship. The love and joy will never change." After the wedding, they drank and danced together, and the episode was The Wild Hunt. . I don't know why I chose this song, because beautiful love is sad, and it may also herald their final parting. After the wedding, they went to apply for Anna to go to the United States, and read several "books of love" they had written over the years, as well as tickets to the concert together. The person said that he believed that their love was sincere, but there were rules, she still Can't go to the US unless the rules change.

Because they can't be together, they are in a bad mood every time they meet each other, so they can't avoid quarreling, and then they are together with other lovers. After a few years, Anna's application to go to the United States was finally approved, and she was able to go to the United States again without restrictions. That's when her boyfriend proposed to her. He said to Anna and her parents: "I like to compare life to a puzzle, a jigsaw puzzle. This puzzle has always been missing a piece, and a large piece in the middle. I searched for it, but was always disappointed. And I came back. Then Anna came into my life, she was so different, although we have only been together for half a year, but I have known her for three years, she just filled the puzzle, I feel the whole puzzle is complete." He said Anna said, "You are so beautiful, smart, and talented, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

But Anna was already married to Jacob, and she couldn't let go of her feelings for Jacob. For many years, she wanted to reunite with Jacob, so she went to the United States. Jacob's girlfriend packed up and left him, and he went to the airport to pick her up. He was very excited and excited when he went there for the first time a few years ago, but this time he was not happy at all, worried and irritable like he was going to meet a burden. In the car back, I listened to Paul Simon's Crazy Love, but there was no such feeling between them anymore, there was no more intimacy and inseparability.

After returning home, Jacob took out a bottle of whiskey, and Anna said that she had not had a drink in several years, and she was living a healthy life. Her boyfriend won't let her drink it, and has successfully enabled her to get up early to run, exercise, eat a healthy breakfast, and have healthy habits. In fact, Jacob couldn't drink at the beginning, but Anna liked whiskey very much, and taught Jacob to drink and became a whisky lover. Their favorite drink is Laphroaig, Scotch single malt whisky. The girl who liked whiskey the most back then is now having a hard time drinking, as if she was drinking something that was hard to swallow.

The reunion that I have been waiting for for so many years has finally come true, but everything is not what I expected. It seemed embarrassing to have nothing to say. Anna said she was going to take a bath, and Jacob said that I would take a bath with you, but there was no longer the intimacy of bathing together before, and the stalemate continued. Later, they hugged each other and recalled the happy times on each other's shoulders, but it was useless and could not evoke any passion. Finally they let go of each other and the movie ends with a gloomy look. At that time, a song played, and after reading the title of the song, my already sad heart felt a sudden blow: Dead Heart.

A long time ago, I felt that the saddest thing about the relationship between two people is not the obstacles from the outside world, but when they overcome all kinds of difficulties and finally get together, they find that their love has been exhausted, they have no enthusiasm, and they can no longer be as infatuated as before. , because no longer in love. At the end of the movie, I felt that the director was a bit inexplicable. He made them fall in love so much, so they had to be without each other, so irreplaceable, but they ended up with such a sad ending. But it soon became clear that it wasn't the director's fault, which in fact was often the case. Whether you want to accept it or not, it's the truth, and feelings don't stand up to abrasion. I also don't understand that Jacob loves Anna so much, but he refuses to go to England. His career will not be affected by going to England. Instead, he will drink more attractive whiskey, and Anna wants to go to the United States but can't. In love, women are more courageous and have no scruples.

Jacob is a furniture designer. As soon as he saw that Anna, who likes to write, had an uncomfortable chair, he specially designed a chair for her with LIKE CRAZY written on it. The title of the movie is translated as "love is crazy", but like is not necessarily a verb, or like crazy is just a feeling of being crazy in love, I can't understand it too well. Crazy in love is also a very wonderful feeling. The very crazy state is indescribable, and people can't help being intoxicated.

When Anna was working in a magazine, the article she wrote was appreciated by her boss, and she asked who the person in the article was. Anna said that this man was close to her and inspired her in her life, and she wanted to repay him with her work. Then the conversation between the female bosses was so comforting to me that I thought Anna and Jacob would get through it too. Just like the kind of love story I like, after a long time, I am still very attached and passionate, and it is meaningful and long.

- I read what you wrote. very good. Who is this guy?

——This person is very close to me and has brought inspiration to my life, and I want to repay him with my own works.

—I was reading it and I was reminded of my days working in New York and my husband in Los Angeles, and he drove across the country, taking pictures of himself in various places along the way. I sent him a picture of myself and he put the picture together and it was as if we were separated but the picture brought us back together.

- Can this method maintain your relationship?

--really.

- very challenging.

- Yes, it's tough. But it made me miss him even more.
