Del dolor de la experiencia.

«The pain now is part of the happiness then. That’s the deal.»

………………………

Joy: We almost made it.

Jack: Now I don’t want to be somewhere else anymore. Not waiting for anything new to happen. Not looking around the next corner, not the next hill. Here now. That’s enough.

Joy: That’s your kind of happy, isn’t it?

Jack: Yes. Yes it is.

Joy: It is not going to last, Jack.

Jack: We shouldn’t think about that now. Lets’ not spoil the time we have together.

Joy: It doesn’t spoil it. I makes it real. Let me just say it before this rain stops, and we go back.

Jack: What’s there to say?

Joy: That I’m going to die and I want to go with you then, too. The only way I can do that is if I’m able to talk to you about it now.

Jack: I’ll manage somehow. Don’t worry about me.

Joy: No, I think it can be better than just managing. What I am trying to say is that the pain then is part of the happiness now. That’s the deal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why love if losing hurt so much. I have no answers anymore, only the life I have lived. Twice in that life I’ve been given the choice. As a boy and as a man. The boy choose safety, the man chooses suffering. The pain now is part of the happiness then. That’s the deal.

 

 

Ése es el trato.
