Kalat na Kaisipan (August 4, 2009 9:23 AM)


Ang pinakamahirap sagutin na panghalip pananong: Bakit?

Gusto kong gumawa ng talaan ng mga dahilan. Pero wala akong maisip. Siguro maige pang maglista na lang ng mga karanasan, ng mga kaganapan.

Napanood mo na ba ang My Sassy Girl? Nabasa mo na ba ang Brida o yung Eleven Minutes ni Coelho? E yung sinulat ni Garcia-Marquez na Love in the Time of Cholera? Kilala mo ba si Junot Diaz? Siya yung sumulat nung The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao na nagwagi ng Pulitzer Prize. Napakinggan mo na ba yung awiting Antukin ni Rico Blanco o kaya yung Kundiman ng Silent Sanctuary? Kung wala kang alam sa mga nabanggit kong iyan, subukan mo kahit isa. Wala lang. Try mo lang.

O sige, konting kowtabol kowts muna.

Mula sa bersyon ng US ng My Sassy Girl:

“ If we never see each other again... And you're out walking one day and you feel a certain presence beside you... that will be me, loving you, wherever I am.”

“As for the question of destiny... all I know is that even when destiny really wants to accomplish something, it can't do it alone. You still have to go to that restaurant. You still have to show up. You still have to build a bridge... to the one you love.”

“Some of us are meant to suffer, you know? Some of us are led to believe that we have this certain destiny and then it just gets snatched away. But we have to stay alive. ‘Cause we have to see how our story ends.”

Mula sa Brida ni Paulo Coelho:

"But how will I know who my Soulmate is?"
"By taking risks," Wicca said to Brida.
"By risking failure, disappointment, disillusion, but never ceasing in your search of love. As long as you keep looking, you will triumph in the end"

Mula sa Eleven Minutes ni Paulo Coelho:

“Profound desire, true desire is the desire to be close to someone. From that point onwards, things change, the man and the woman come into play, but what happens before–the attraction that brought them together–is impossible to explain. It is untouched desire in its purest state. When desire is still in this pure state, the man and the woman fall in love with life, they live each moment reverently, consciously, always ready to celebrate the next blessing. When people feel like this, they are not in a hurry, they do not precipitate events with unthinking actions. They know that the inevitable will happen, that what is real always finds a way of revealing itself. When the moment comes, they do not hesitate, they do not miss an opportunity, they do not let slip a single magic moment, because they respect the importance of each second.”

Mula sa Love in the Time of Cholera ni Garcia-Marquez:

“To him she seemed so beautiful, so seductive, so different from ordinary people, that he could not understand why no one was as disturbed as he by the clicking of her heels on the paving stones, why no one else's heart was wild with the breeze stirred by the sighs of her veils, why everyone did not go mad with the movements of her braid, the flight of her hands, the gold of her laughter. He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell.”

“Together they had overcome the daily incomprehension, the instantaneous hatred, the reciprocal nastiness, and fabulous flashes of glory in the conjugal conspiracy. It was time when they both loved each other best, without hurry or excess, when both were most conscious of and grateful for their incredible victories over adversity. Life would still present them with other moral trials, of course, but that no longer mattered: they were on the other shore.”

Mula sa The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao ni Junot Diaz:

"It's never the changes we want that change everything."

"But if these years have taught me anything it is this: you can never run away. Not ever. The only way out is in."

Mula sa Antukin ni Rico Blanco:

Pinaiyak ka ng manghuhula
Hindi na raw tayo magkasamang tatanda
Buti nalang
Merong langit na nagtatanggol sa
Pag ibig na pursigido't matyaga

Mula sa Kundiman ng Silent Sanctuary:

Para kang asukal
Sintamis mong magmahal
Para kang pintura
Buhay ko ikaw ang nagpinta
Para kang unan
Pinapainit mo ang aking tiyan
Para kang kumot na yumayakap
Sa tuwing ako’y nalulungkot

Kung hindi man tayo hanggang dulo
Wag mong kalimutan
Nandito lang ako
Laging umaalalay
Di ako lalayo
Dahil ang tanging panalangin ko ay ikaw

Mga karagdagang tanong pa.

Nainlove ka na ba? Paano? Saan? Kailan? Bakit? Kanino?
Nasaktan ka na ba sa pag-ibig? Paano?
Nahusgahan ka na ba dahil sa pagmamahal?
Kailan nga ba pinakamasarap ang pag-ibig?
Paano ka nakasiguradong totoo ang naramdaman mo?
Paano ka magmahal?
Paano mo gustong mahalin ka?
Anong hinahanap mo sa taong mamahalin mo?
Ano ba ang ibig sabihin ng pag-ibig sayo?
Bakit mo siya mahal?
Bakit daw?
Bakit nga?
BAKIT?

Ganito ang istorya. May babae. May lalaki. Nagkita sila isang araw. Nang makita ni babae si lalaki, yun na. Wala nang paliwanag pa. Pag-ibig. Para kay babae. Para kay lalaki.

Magsisiwalat ng bahagya si babae.
Sandali lang.
