OF AN AGE. That was one of the most beautiful films I've seen in a while.

Wow.

Don't continue if you don't want SPOILERS.

Be still my heart. I don't think I've ever had a connection like that with any past lovers. At least, not reciprocated like that. What a beautiful story! And yet so heart breaking and bittersweet. Moved to tears with its beauty and honesty.

I love stories where the characters feel so real and authentic. It's like you're watching a real life interaction. When it's a bit awkward, uncomfortable pauses, realistic emotional expression. Ugh. What makes it harder is when it doesn't end in the way you want. But oh, does that make it all the more REAL. It reminds you that there is no happy ending in life. Not really. There are more awkward goodbyes and emotional outbursts, and lack of closure.

To experience love that immediate and that pure, it's rare. It's once in a lifetime stuff. Looking back at my own life. I don't think I've ever truly felt that close that immediately or intensely with anyone. Maybe I have but the feeling faded. I grew up and I wised up and realized it was really codependency, loneliness, attachment. Maybe that's why I don't remember anything that intense, because I saw it for what it actually was.

But to experience two people who after all that time still felt that connection? That was amazing. And so sad. That yearning for something you can't really have but want so very badly. I definitely understand more than I'd care to admit.

I know that I do feel things deeply. But it's not often that I experience a film that hits me right where it hurts and still be so grateful for the opportunity to see it. To be thankful for its honesty through my tears.

Of An Age gave that to me.

Thank you ❤

Funny, I could see myself say that referring to my cat. 🤔

“I want to wake up with you beside me in the mornings. I want to spend my evenings looking at you across the dinner table. I want to share every mundane detail of my day with you and hear every detail of yours. I want to laugh with you and fall asleep with you in my arms.”

— Nicholas Sparks

I am a writing genius who totally planned this
