small talk.

Who do you run to when the only person who can make you stop crying, is the one who makes you cry?

movie poster
Just watch the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), A dark comedy for anyone with a past they would rather forget. Its a sort of science fiction romance story that explore the element of love and memory. The story take you on a journey with a couple trying to get their failed relationship memory erase.
Its also based on the following quote from an Alexander Pope poem:

How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd

the full poem here. i don't understand the poem, but you could try reading it and explain it to me.

A thought provoking movie. Just watch it.

What i got from the movie other then the post title?
Our memories are what make us who we are.
You can't change the past, but you can change the future.
You can erase someone from your mind, getting them out of your heart is another story.


Thanks for passing the movie to me xuxu.

Now to start my stupid final report for my awesome internship...
