City of Angels

Seth: You're a good doctor.
Maggie: How do you know?
Seth: I have a feeling.
Maggie: Yeah, well that's pretty flimsy evidence.
Seth: Close your eyes. Just for a second... what am I doing?
Maggie: You're... touching me.
Seth: How do you know?
Maggie: Because I feel it.
Seth: You should trust that. You don't trust it enough.

I believe in love, however everyone around me tells me there is nothing such as love that exists. May be, they are right. However, just because of, some not so right experiences, an individual should not give up on the idea of love. If I believe in love so strongly, I am sure there are people around me who believe in it as strongly as I do or even more.

The movie "City of Angel" was one of my favorite movies while growing up. I have watched it many times. However, for a few days I had a strong urge to watch it again. Today, after I came back from work. I started to watch the movie. It is amazing how an angel falls in love with a heart surgeon. He appreciates her and feel connected with her. However, the girl does not like the idea of him not being able to feel her touch. She gets frustrated. The angel gives his eternity up to feel and touch her. He becomes a human and starts to feel and touch. The girl dies in front of him. She apologizes to him for having him change into a human. However, he says that he had no regret as her one touch was enough for eternity.

Even at the end when another angel questions him if he would have still changed into a human if he had known that the girl was going to die. He answers by saying, "I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss of her mouth, one touch of her hand, than eternity without it. One."

"One" what a beautiful concept and idea of love. One moment spent right in love can give you something to look forward to and help you to give up eternity.

Love the song of the movie "Iris" by GooGoo Dolls https://youtu.be/JiXnswDyZAQ


And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
