Go with what's Jamie saying

I just finished watching "Love and Other Drugs" movie. Well, the movie is just another ordinary romantic movie. Starring Jake Gyllenhall and Anne Hathaway. It's about "a womanising drug rep... falls, redemptively, for a woman with Parkinson's", said Guardian.Co.Uk site. Yea, as I told you before, another ordinary romantic movie. But, instead of the story, what I love the most from the movie is, indeed, the epilogue scene, with Fidelity by Regina Spektor is playing as the background music.

"Sometimes the thing you most want doesn't happen. Sometimes the thing you never expect to happen, does. ... I don't know. You meet thousands of people, and none of them really touch you. And then you meet one person, and your life is changed forever." (Jamie, Love and Other Drugs)
Oh, Jamie really got me. His saying is just damn right. Sometimes, the thing we most want unfortunately doesn't happen. Otherwise, the thing we least or even never expect, does. And that circumstance, I've experienced, and I believe we all have. I remember, how I wanted to work in media field, but when I got one I reconsidered it and decided not taking the job. Or how I never wanted to work in a formal company, to use suit, to sit behind desk, and see what I am now? I really do those things, and I don't know why, in fact I love it. Or how I was always being silly enough to think of having an unordinary relationship with an unordinary man the old days, and when I got one -a musician with completely unordinary life, personality, perspective, and etc. that also made our relationship beyond ordinary- after passing many kinds of those unordinariness, unfortunately,  we should really end it. Cause in fact I just realized that the unordinariness once I expected isn't exactly what I really need. So I left. Well, it might be a process or anything, for me, for everyone, to reach this present life. And in my point, the life I dream now is 99% the opposite of the life I used to dream. And it's funny how I love how I am being now. Being so normal and fine.

That's life. We never know where life will take us, what life bring us in the future, and etc. I repeat, Jamie is completely right. I really agree with him.

  1. Oh my, so its over.. (this is shocking as I always thought that you two will make it until the end) So sorry to hear that dear, but one thing you're right about; things what we want the most unfortunately doesn't happen sometimes.

    Kindly let me share this beautiful quote:

    Thanks for sharing the quote, pal. But hopefully, either me or you could do the thing we wanted. Amen.. God knows better, really.
