Atonement.



Robbie Turner: Dearest Cecilia, the story can resume. The one I had been planning on that evening walk. I can become again the man who once crossed the surrey park at dusk, in my best suit, swaggering on the promise of life. The man who, with the clarity of passion, made love to you in the library. The story can resume. I will return. Find you, love you, marry you and live without shame.

Cecilia Tallis: I love you. I'll wait for you. Come back. Come back to me.

[Grande fotografia. Grande filme!]

First Kiss.

For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something... to be with someone you can't get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere... a kiss so hot and so deep that you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. You don't want to. Trust me. When you find that right person for a first kiss, it's everything.

Na minha concepção:

Não conhecemos uma pessoa antes de viajarmos com ela; de andarmos de carro com ela (assistindo à condução); de provarmos o que cozinha; de dormirmos (seja em que circunstância for!) e de vivermos com ela.
Pensando bem, acho que por mais que tudo isto nos aproxime do conhecimento de alguém, por revelar muito do que essa pessoa é, nunca se conhece ninguém por completo. Nem por metade.
[E se ao menos chegassemos a conhecer.nos a nós mesmos...mas deixem que vos diga que até isso cai um pouco no utópico!]

The best reason for having dreams.

is that in dreams no reasons are necessary.

23 anos.



A queimar os últimos cartuchos dos 23: 23 anos, muitos dias (muitas noites!), muitas aprendizagens. E giro, giro, é ter o discernimento de olhar de fora, para mim mesma, e pensar: já fui a Eva dos 18, dos 20, dos 22,..., e cada uma teve um sabor especial, encerrou uma lição única e abriu mais uma janela.
A verdade é que tenho plena consciência de que já fui muita coisa, e mudei outras tantas. Pode dizer.se que ainda sou menina-mulher, mas uma coisa é certa: sou sempre EU. Muito mais eu. E cada vez mais e mais...

Quase.

Tenho pensado em quase-muitas coisas.
Tenho pensado em agarrar na máquina do tempo que tenho guardada (é um segredo quase só-meu) e usá-la para andar quase-para trás (se bem que noutros dias quero usá-la quase-para a frente).
Tenho quase-sorrido ao pensar no que quase-fizémos e quase ficado triste no que deixámos por fazer.
Penso nas quase-palavras, nas quase-frases, nas quase-lágrimas, nas quase-entregas.
"Nesta quase amizade quase nada faz sentido".
Hoje, enquanto sentia o calor do sol nas minhas costas quase-nuas e via o pôr-do-sol, quase senti vontade de te ligar e quase partilhar tudo isto contigo.
Quase...
(Talvez deva apagar os meus "quases". Guardo só um ou dois, os que quase me fazem falta. O que achas?)

Action may not always bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.

Das (des)idealizações.

I... I used to make long speeches to you after you left. I used to talk to you all the time,
even though I was alone. I walked around for months talking to you. Now I don't know what
to say. It was easier when I just imagined you. I even imagined you talking back to me.
We'd have long conversations, the two of us.
lt was almost like you were there. I could hear you, I could see you, smell you.
I could hear your voice. Sometimes your voice would wake me up. It would wake me up
in the middle of the night, just like you were in the room with me. Then... it slowly faded.
I couldn't picture you anymore. I tried to talk out loud to you like I used to, but there was
nothing there. I couldn't hear you. Then... I just gave it up. Everything stopped.
You just... disappeared. And now I'm working here. I hear your voice all the time.
Every man has your voice.

New Year's.

'Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? It’s not on the calendar, it’s not a birthday, it’s not a new year. It’s an event, big or small, something that changes us. Ideally, that gives us hope, a new way of living and looking at the world, a way of letting go of old habits, old memories. What's important is that we never stop believing we can have a new beginning, but it's also important to remember that, amid all the crap, there are a few things worth holding on to.'

No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.

Communication.

It's the first thing we really learn in life. The funny thing is, once we grow up, learn our words and really start talking, the harder it becomes to know what to say. Or how to ask for what we really need.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Querido Pai Natal:

Quero um coração novinho em folha pelo Natal.

[Dá para ser?!;)
É que este já está um pouco gasto..]

Asking too much.

i want somebody who sees the pointlessness
and still keeps their purpose in mind
i want somebody who has a tortured soul
some of the time
i want somebody who will either put out for me
or put me out of misery
or maybe just put it all to words
and make me go, you know
i never heard it put that way
make me say, what did you just say?

i want somebody who can hold my interest
hold it and never let it fall
someone who can flatten me with a kiss
that hits like a fist
or a sentence, that stops me like a brick wall
if you hear me talking
listen to what i'm not saying
if you hear me playing guitar
listen to what i'm not playing
and don't ask me to put words
to all the silences i wrote
don't ask me to put words
to all the spaces between notes
in fact if you have to ask, forget it
do and you'll regret it
i'm tired of being the interesting one
i'm tired of having fun for two
just lay yourself on the line
and i might lay myself down by you
but don't sit behind your eyes
and wait for me to surprise you
i want somebody who can make me
scream until it's funny
give me a run for my money
i want someone who can
twist me up in knots
tell me, for the woman who has everything
what have you got?
i want someone who's not afraid of me
or anyone else
in other words i want someone
who's not afraid of themself

do you think i'm asking too much?

Jerry Maguire: I love you. You... you complete me. And I just...
Dorothy: Shut up, just shut up. You had me at "hello".

Dorothy: On the surface, everything seems fine. I've got this great guy. And he loves my kid. And he sure does like me a lot. And I can't live like that. It's not the way i'm built.

Jerry Maguire: What do you want from me? My soul?

In general, lines are there for a reason.

For security, for clarity. If you choose to cross the line, you pretty much do so at your own risk. So why is it that the bigger the line, the greater the temptation to cross it? We cant help ourselves. When we see a line we want to cross it. Maybe it’s the thrill of the unfamiliar, a sort of personal dare. The only problem is once that you’ve crossed, it’s almost impossible to go back. But, if you do manage to make it back across the line, you find safety in numbers."

'Aproveita o sabor, nunca mais vais querer outro'.

'At some point, you have to make a decision.

Boundaries don't keep other people out, they fence you in. Life is messy, that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines that are way too dangerous to cross. Here's what I know. If you're willing to throw caution to the wind and take a chance, the view from the other side... is spectacular!'*

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Princípio.

Tenho para mim que não devemos nunca dizer mal ou alimentar e expressar ressentimentos (públicos ou privados)sobre alguém com quem partilhámos a nossa vida (relações amorosas, mais especificamente).

Ao fazê-lo, estamos, pura e simplesmente, a dizer mal de nós mesmos: se repararmos, houve uma parte de nós que se identificou com essa mesma pessoa e, 'a outra parte' do que somos, resulta também [quer queiramos, quer não!] duma obra e influência das vivências que tivémos com ela.

[That's the point!*]

And sometimes, despite all your best intentions, fate wins anyway.

'Love.

may not make the world spin, but that's what makes the ride worth it'.

Das escolhas.

'Ok, here it is, your choice.. it’s simple, her or me, and i’m sure she’s really great. But Derek, i love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste on music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me'*

'Talvez seja uma mulher fora do meu tempo.

porque continuo a esperar das relações amorosas um espírito de compromisso e de continuidade que já não reconheço nos outros...'

[mas é como dizia o outro: 'when are you going to realize that being normal is not necessarily a virtue?! It rather denotes a lack of courage!']

I know, for sure.

Who i am. How much i worth. What i need. What i want to give.
What i want for me and.. what i don't really really want.

'At the end of the day,

there are some things you just can't help but talk about. Some things we just don't want to hear, and some things we say because we can't be silent any longer. Some things are more than what you say. They're what you do. Some things you say because you have no other choice. Some things you keep to yourself. And not too often, but every now and then, some things simply speak for themselves'*

'Could you show me dear,

something I've not seen? Something infinitely interesting..?'

When it's real.

When it's right. Don't let anything stand in your way.

You can be anywhere when your life begins.




When the future opens up in front of you. And you may not even realize it at first, but it's already happening.

Sometimes you have to do the wrong thing.

Sometimes you have to make a big mistake to figure out how to make things right. The stakes are painful. But they're the only way to find out who you really are. I know who I am now. And I know what I want.

'The early bird catches the worm.

a stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we haven't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to ‘seize the day'. Still sometimes we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves like Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying'.

June Carter: Please sing.
Johnny Cash: I'm asking you to marry me. I love you, June. Now I know I said and done a lotta things, that I hurt you, but I promise, I'll never do that again. I only want to take care of you. I will not leave you like that dutch boy with your finger in the dam.

Intimacy.

is a four syllable word for "Here's my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy". It's both desired&feared. Difficult to live with, and impossible to live without. Intimacy also comes attached to the three R's -relatives, romance, and roommates. There are some things you can't escape. And other things you just don't want to know.

Este blogue.

é autobiográfico. Revejo.me, aqui. Em palavras e sentires meus e de outros, que consigo sentir e tocar como se de partes minhas se tratassem. É, por tantas vezes, um pedir emprestado.

[Os sentimentos e as emoções são sempre maiores do que a nossa capacidade de os verbalizarmos. É nítido, isso.]

Dentro de nós há o problema do ou e e.

Às vezes gostávamos que as coisas cá dentro fossem ou brancas ou pretas e os sentimentos estivessem, no coração, separados segundo as suas cores em gavetas diferentes. A vida seria muito mais simples. O problema é que, no coração, vem tudo misturado e cheio de es. Há coisas que parecem boas e são más, enquanto que outras parecem más e são boas. Uma pessoa, se não tem cuidado, engana-se.
Foi este o problema do Adão e Eva: a maçã era má e parecia boa. Ainda gostava, um dia, de conhecer o LABORATÓRIO DAS TENTAÇÕES, onde se inventa esta trapalhada toda. Se percebesse melhor o truque dos es talvez começasse a ser capaz de distrinçar os ous.
Não sei de onde vem esta agitação que nos atacou o coração e nos deixa como baratas tontas, sempre à procura da metade que não temos e do sítio onde não estamos. Há quem diga que é feitiço. Acho que, antes de nascermos, alguém nos segredou baixinho que é possível sermos totalmente felizes. E acho que este segredo bom é a culpa de que não nos contentarmos nunca com o que já alcançámos e querermos sempre mais.

Closer [IV].

Dan: At six, we stand round the computer and read the next day's page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves...
Alice: Such as?
Dan: "He was a convivial fellow" - meaning he was an alcoholic. "He valued his privacy" - gay. "He enjoyed his privacy" - raging queen.
Alice: What would my euphemism be?
Dan: She was... disarming.
Alice: That's not a euphemism.
Dan: Yes, it is.

Alice: Where is this love? I can't see it, I can't touch it. I can't feel it. I can hear it. I can hear some words, but I can't do anything with your easy words.

Dan: And you left him, just like that?
Alice: It's the only way to leave. "I don't love you anymore. Goodbye."

As we grow up.

we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.
You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time.
You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.
You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.
You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.
So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.

Don't be afraid that your life will end,
be afraid that it will never begin.


[Obrigada, M.]

Closer.

Dan: I fell in love.
Alice: Oh, as if you had no choice? There's a moment, there's always a moment, "I can do this, I can give into this, or I can resist it", and I don't know when your moment was, but I bet you there was one.

Everything is a version of something else.

'The thing about plans.

is they don't take into account the unexpected, so when we're thrown a curve ball, whether its in the O.R. or in life, we have to improvise. Of course, some of us are better at it than others. Some of us just have to move on to plan B, and make the best of it. And sometimes what we want is exactly what we need. But sometimes, sometimes what we need is a new plan.'

[in Grey's Anatomy]

iLumina-me.

Gosto de ti como quem gosta do sábado,
Gosto de ti como quem abraça o fogo,
Gosto de ti como quem vence o espaço,
Como quem abre o regaço,
Como quem salta o vazio,
Gosto de ti como quem mata o degredo,
Gosto de ti como quem finta o futuro,
Gosto de ti como quem diz não ter medo,
Como quem mente em segredo,
Como quem baila na estrada,
Gosto de ti como uma estrela no dia,
Gosto de ti quando uma nuvem começa,
Gosto de ti quando o teu corpo pedia,
Quando nas mãos me ardia,
Como silêncio na guerra,
Beijos de luz e de terra,
E num passado imperfeito,
Um fogo farto no peito
E um mundo longe de nós.

Enquanto não há amanhã,
Ilumina-me, Ilumina-me.
Enquanto não há amanhã,
Ilumina-me, Ilumina-me.


[Pedro Abrunhosa]
Se quisermos o Arco-íris temos de Suportar a Chuva...!

'Devolve-me a capacidade de respirar, prometo fazer-te nascer asas novas.'

'At the end of a day like this.

when so many prayers are answered and so many aren’t, we take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes, against all odds, against all logic, we touch'.


[in Grey's Anatomy]

'Thank you.

you made my mind up for me when you started to ignore me.
Do you see a single tear? It isn't gonna happen here.
If you're over me, I'm already over you. If you wanna walk, I'm a step ahead. If you're moving on, I'm already gone.
Haven't you heard that I'm gonna be okay?'

Change.

we don’t like it, we fear it, but we can't stop it from coming. We either adapt to change or we get left behind. And it hurts to grow, anybody who tells you it doesn’t is lying. But heres the truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same. And sometimes, oh, sometimes change is good. Oh, sometimes, change is ... everything.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Forgive and forget.

That’s what they say. It’s good advice, but it’s not very practical. When someone hurts us, we want to hurt them back. When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness, old scores are never settled… old wounds never heal. And the most we can hope for, is that one day we’ll be lucky enough to forget.

[in Grey's Anatomy]

Um dia escrevo.te uma canção.

Não há segurança maior.

do que a certeza das coisas que são ditas sem palavras.

Verdade, verdadinha [II].

'A determinada altura da minha vida o meu maior luxo passou a ser a minha consciência. o deitar a cabeça na almofada e adormecer sem fantasmas a corroerem-me o espírito e a roubarem-me o sono. passou a sê-lo quando percebi os esqueletos que uns e outros guardam no armário e que nunca mais os conseguem libertar, mesmo sendo pesos mortos com os quais podem não viver.

a culpa e o erro que pesam a consciência parecem-me castigos suficientes para as almas errantes e pecadores num nível bem mais terrenos que religioso. parece-me tudo'
.

[Por Soinico, in www.confinsdonada.blogspot.com]

Verdade, verdadinha [I].

'Há prazos que se esgotam. humanos. de pele e osso. as relações humanas também têm prazos. continuar a consumi-las e ignorar a validade é um erro crasso. tenho para mim que esse consumo irresponsável e prolongado fere os orgãos responsáveis por esses laços, como o consumo exagerado de álcool o fígado. as consequências vivem-se diaramente, a cada consumo, para os próprios e para os que o rodeiam. a longo prazo podem vir a ser destruidoras'.

[Por Soinico, in www.confinsdonada.blogspot.com]

Your Love.

As you leave me please would you close the door
and don't forget what I told you
Just 'cause you're right - that don't mean I'm wrong
Another shoulder to cry upon
I just wanna use your love tonight
I don't wanna lose your love tonight...


[A música de sempre. Para sempre.]

Um dia encho-te a casa de flores.

Hoje é o dia.

18.

'It's not how you look, it's what you feel inside... I don't care when - I don't need to know why, 18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die" ”

I didn't ask to be the princess, but if the crown fits...



[No matter what: My Heart is My Crown*]

'At the end of the day.

faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And it's not so important happy ever after, just that it's happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you , and once in a while people may even take your breath away.'

Penso que esse dia, um dia, pode chegar.

Hoje é o dia.

Numerologia.

Ontem. Pequeno workshop. Muito interessante (e interessada!).

[Lembra-me logo: 'Há mais coisas entre o céu e a terra do que tu possas imaginar'.

Nunca acordo deste sonho.

e nunca durmo.

' Like i said.

disappearances happen. Pains go phantom. Blood stops running and people.. people fade away'.

' Well...


Well, at first glance My eyes are brown. But when the light hits them, they change to amber. And if you look really close around the iris, the colour is pure honey. But when you look into the sun, they almost look green. That's my favourite. ;) '

Nunca me hei-de considerar.

A última bolacha do pacote ou a última coca-cola do deserto.

Até porque a última bolacha geralmente vem esmigalhada e a última coca-cola, bem...muito presumivelmente virá sem gás!

At some point.

we all have to choose: do we fall back on what we know, or do we step forward to something new?

Men.

If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay. Stop making excuses for a man and his behaviour.

Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be. Slower is better.

Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you can't "be friends".

A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend. Don't settle. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you Any differently? Always have your own set of friends separate from his. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.

Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later. You cannot change a man's behaviour. Change comes from within. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job.

Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

Never let a man define who you are.

Never borrow someone else's man.

If he cheated with you, he'll absolutely cheat on you.

A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you .

All men are NOT dogs.

You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is two way street. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage... deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.

Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.

Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him - he takes it for granted. Never move into his mother's house. Never co-sign for a man. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.

Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Share this with other women and men (just so they know)... You'll make someone smile, another rethink her choices, and another woman prepare.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them and an entire lifetime to forget them.

Tenho uma teoria.

Sobre os começos de namoros e afins (pseudo's-ou-qualquer-coisa-lá-próxima-cuja -ideia-de-rotular-assusta-demasiado!):

São como os inícios das gravidezes - devem ser o mínimo possível revelados ou assumidos publicamente (até aos 3 primeiros meses), de forma a precaver contra eventuais invejas ou coisas que tais, sob o risco de ocorrer um aborto (espontâneo ou provocado).

Nas minhas lutas (internas) entre mim e mim.

[Faço por me recordar das palavras da minha amiga S. (já te disse que sou tua fã?! ;)]:

'Tenho medo de muita coisa, mas há vontades que nos fazem andar, e outras vezes até correr, mesmo quando achamos que não estamos a mexer os pés sequer'.

[E a minha vontade é ser feliz. Dê por onde der!*]

'Nunca te ofereceram um desejo

sem te darem, ao mesmo tempo, o poder de o tornares realidade. Contudo, é provável que tenhas de lutar por ele.'

[Richard Bach, Ilusões]

Grandes verdades,

Pela mão de grandes pessoas (obrigada, Kiks!):

"The most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."

[Carrie, in Sex & the City]

Eu.

Tenho uma séria dificuldade em desistir das coisas. Especialmente quando são causas em que acredito e a que me proponho.

Sou mais do género: 'Desistir era fácil demais...!'*

[* E, para que conste, eu não gosto de coisas dadas. Nem de dadas, nem de dadas como adquiridas.]

Sometimes they are so close.

Do sabor.

como distingues num beijo quando estás apaixonado e quando não estás?
quando dói. quando sentires o peito magoado de ansiedade e desejo.
quando já não souberes lidar com as palavras, porque aquilo que sentes te transcende.
quando o silêncio e a escuridão não forem incomodativos, nem embaraçosos,
então podes saber que é algo a sério.
ai os beijos sabem a rebeldia. sabem a força, como alguém determinado a esmurrar uma parede, mesmo que não haja razão aparente para tal. mas também sabem a ternura e a carinho..
é uma mistura agri-doce de sensações, inexplicável, onde há como que uma luta entre algo selvagem e algo doce. por isso, sim, sabem a açúcar. mas também sabem a pimenta. e têm sempre um objectivo: mudarmo-nos, libertarmo-nos. desprendermo-nos e amarrarmo-nos ainda mais..'
