I always thought it was impossible to understand a question without first answering a question; and this question will always have doubts. I think we can only say that we understand something about that answer.
For what? If you can’t find a reason, I don’t think you understand at all what’s going on. Why do you hate me, why do I always lose things?Why don’t you stay? Every question is based on it, and it’s not the same to ask why a friend left, or why he stayed, nor is it the same to ask why it doesn’t rain or why it’s sunny, and the same goes for everything. When you stop to find an answer to that kind of question, is something always missing?And you may or may not find what was missing. What’s left, and what you have, is a memory.
- It’s not very clear if it’s something that belongs to us or if it’s something that’s already happened.
- Why.
- How real is a memory?Should we consider it good because it happened or bad because it’s over?Is memory the best gift to make an unforgettable moment?It’s sad to remember something that won’t happen again.
- In 1988.
- Woody Allen wondered the same question.
- ??.
- So I was wondering if a souvenir was something you had or something you’d lost.
- I’m pretty sure.
- Like the rest of the people.
- He didn’t find a convincing answer to his question and it’s easy to understand why.
It is precisely this controversy, this magic, this contradiction and this mixture of feelings that makes a memory of the mystery it is, and we know that it is better not to understand certain problems, to let them invade you and drag you into uncharted territory, or something like that. let them act like a distraction. And that they can, for a while, take you away from the search you wanted to start Do you stop at a memory and forget what you really wanted to know?If they hate you, why does anyone love you, why does it rain?Or why do you lose sometimes? Stay paralyzed in memory while interrupting the mission to find out why the person left you, or not.
