Movies that moved me #1. The English Patient



I'll suggest you watch this amazing movie before reading the post as that helps you relate or otherwise I hope you feel like watching it after reading my post.

Certain movies just make you realize how little we live, how little we feel…how little we imagine. So much power around, in this world, hidden under garb of our ignorance and self fulfillment. Power of companionship, power of care…power of love.

Movies like The English patient.



It is so much in love..it gives you zeal,it gives you strength, strength to walk in desert for 3 days, strength to trade your very existence…strength to open your heart to the possibility to feel.
It is easy to live enveloped in anger, it is easy to stay mum ,whats difficult is to love, to open your heart to someone…to let someone in and give them the ownership of yourself. To let the love consume you, intoxicate you with its possibility. Love is what drives you to live to the fullest…to absorb each moment. It is love that evokes true craving. Craving of have that person around just for your self, your being!

“Each night I cut out my heart but in the morning it was full again!”- Almasy 

Love is not to have him, love is to have faith in him and let him go. Hana cared too much but her compassion made her stronger…enough to open her wounds again…her ability to open herself to the possibility of good drove her to Kip. She broke her curse, a curse she self imposed.

People suffer so much, give so much and get nothing but are still going and going strong! Hana didn't actualize her relation with Kip but she didn’t ruin her moments with him. With the desire to meet again they parted, they moved ahead with memories of pure compassion…moments when they stood for each other.

No matter how much the movie talks about violence and war, it’s the hope flickering through long trees that it leaves its audience with.

Be the gypsy. Experience. Absorb. Live. Feel!


*one of my favorite moments in  the movie*
