An old gentleman, living in a nursing home, tells a story to an old lady every day. The story is written in a notebook. A love story is recorded. In the story, Noah and Aille, a pair of young people who are passionately in love, experience parental obstruction, separation, reunion, and choice. The old lady always asks "then what about" curiously, and sometimes says "I feel as if I have heard this story".
Through the conversation between the old man and the doctor and his children, we understand that the old lady has Alzheimer's disease. The old man loved his wife deeply, and despite the dissuasion of his children, he moved to the nursing home to tell the old lady their old stories every day.
He said, this is my home because the people I love live here.
The story was over and it ended like a fairy tale, "and they lived happily ever after." She finally remembered, "I remember. That's us. Noah, Noah, I love you."
She asked, what's wrong with me. He said, darling, you just walked away for a while God.
But there was only a short time, and soon the old lady didn't remember everything. She screamed and pushed him away, saying I don't know you, stay away from me.
At the end of the film, in the ward at midnight, he quietly walked to her bedside and called her softly.
She asked, do you believe our love can work miracles? He said, I believe, that is the power that brings me back to you again and again.
She is in tears, do you think our love can take us away together? 'I think our love makes us omnipotent,' he said.
The next morning, the nurse found them lying in bed, holding each other's hands, leaving the world with peaceful faces.
It's as out of reach as a fairy tale, but it's as real as life. Touching and inspiring. Tell us that fairy tales are not out of reach, as long as we have love.
I have always believed that whether it is love or not, there are always realistic conditions for suitability, and a series of realities must always be considered. But I've suddenly woken up now that thinking about reality doesn't mean we have to give up love.
I've never been able to understand that someone can marry someone they don't love at all, just because that person is suitable for marriage. I think that is immoral and deceiving God. You swear in front of God that you love this person, that you are willing to depend on him for the rest of your life, and protect him, no matter whether you are born, old, sick or dead, rich or poor. How can you do it if you don't love this person. I never believed it. This is simply self-deception. totally telling lies.
Many people have told me that relationships can be cultivated. After a long time, you will naturally fall in love with this person who lives with you day and night. I naturally believe this. But it doesn't feel like something is missing.
Allie's mother took her to the lumber mill to see the people she once loved deeply. It turned out that her mother also loved poor boys and had a similar experience. Separated due to parental obstruction. She cried, but I really love your father. Some people think this paragraph is superfluous. I think my mother is telling her that although the relationship can be cultivated, I married your father according to the expectations of my parents, and I love him, but it is different after all. That's why Mom finally gave Aille the 365 letters she had withheld from Noah and said, I hope you make the right choice. It's like Aille said to Noah, i love him very much. But that's a little different from loving Noah after all.
When you are alone, when you are together, you will inexplicably feel a power that makes you fearless, full of joy, and yet calm. You will act silly and say childish things. You become unreasonable and nervous. There's a force that pushes you toward him, with all your energy and passion.
They're always bickering and right off the bat it's like nothing happened.
At the end of the summer, she went to a prestigious university in New York. He wrote letters every day for a year, 365 letters, all of which were detained by her mother.
He went through World War II and watched his best friend die. She fell in love again, agreed to propose, and quickly put on her wedding dress.
As he had promised her, he built the white house she wanted, with blue shutters, an old-fashioned fence, and a room facing the creek for her to paint.
He stumbled across her, but was dating a man. Depressed.
He decides to put the house up for sale, but always finds reasons not to sell the house.
When she tried on the wedding dress, she saw him in the newspaper with a stubble face, standing in front of the white house. go find him.
They quarreled in the heavy rain. Knowing that it's not over, they still love each other deeply.
Quoting a sentence from a film review, "Love doesn't have so many excuses. If it can't be fulfilled, it can only mean that love is not enough."
Love can create miracle.
Like Noah said, love can do anything we want it to. Can't.
So, let's trust love.
