Tears

Apparently I am a sucker for love stories. Last night I couldn't sleep so I started to watch Starz or Cinemax one of those channels. And suprisingly there was no soft porn that late in the night :). "Cinemax stepping up". Anyhow, the movie I watched was City of Angels, and for those of you who haven't heard of it, it is a 90s movie starring Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan.It is supposed to be about an Angel who falls in love with a human and gives up his immortality to be with her. After he did this grand gesture, she dies. He was only able to spend one night with her, one lousy night.

It was a sad movie, I have watched this movie before, but apparently this was the only time I watched it alone, and ofcourse I cried. Not loud screaming noises, but tears ran down my cheek while I watched the ending, sniffling and all. I always seem to cry at the ending of love stories when I am watching it by myself. Why is that?

The concept of the movie was sad, it really was. And for the guys who read this, its not because I am a girl (and girls are emotional, according to males) why I think so. Imagine: You find someone that you love deeply, that person completes you (yes I know it is very cliche). But seriously, when you with this person you are very happy, you think about this person all the time, this is the only person you can imagine spending the rest of your life with. And as soon as you are able to be with this person.....They die.

What the hell.....? this must be the worst thing ever, a cruel joke. Its like you taunting a dog with a piece of meat but wont give it them (simply cruel).

So that is why I cried. Everyone deserves to be happy and if you found your soulmate and then they die, is it ok, because and least you got to find out what love is and you felt a level of happiness you have never had before, making the affair (even if it lasted only a day) worthwhile?
