Continuous
I was watching “Before Sunset”
The middle film of a trilogy
About love, connection
And the journey of life
In the movie
Ethan Hawke has a thought
That he expresses
To his reunited friend Julie Delpy
Life’s hard
It’s supposed to be
If we didn’t suffer
We wouldn’t learn a thing
It struck me as true
Something I’ve heard before
But it also made me wonder
And think about the future
When does the suffering end
How much do we have to learn
And when are we allowed
To put the learning into play
Maybe it’s all continuous
Suffering, learning, growing
Making it all better
Just like relationships
