Listen, I've watched Little Women about ten times but FOR SOME REASON, only a couple days ago when watching it with a best friend did we both start crying.
We had both watched the movie many times before, but i guess this specific time in our life where this movie found us hit different. She's in her first year in college and I'm in my gap. The overwhelming feeling of loneliness that can take over when entering a new phase in your life is UNMATCHED, and jo's monologue just hit.
Watching the movie, there are these very evident hard cuts between the warmth of childhood and coldness of the present, BUT when you actually think about it, can you recall the moment in the movie it BECOMES the present, and the color shifts? Probably not, because time is subtle. You don't wake up and suddenly realize you're a grown up who must make your own way in the world. Its more of a retrospective. Jo herself probably didn't realize her childhood was as warm and beautiful as it was.... until it was gone.
Anyways we cried and laughed about why we were crying, but I haven't been able to think about it since. I don't know where I am in the color palette sunset of warm to cold, but I will know once I've long passed it.

spent the middle of the day watching “Amy”, it stirred something in me. she would’ve loved the come back of low rise. i cried sitting with the thought that all consuming love, the one that eats you from the inside out, exist. i miss joan didion and her ability to articulate emotions, grabbing you by the shoulders, looking you in the eye and breathing her truth to life. i’ve been romanticizing berlin. what my heart and eyes will see.

It’s starting to happen all the time to the point where we can’t even avoid each other… but I’m not complaining.
Always wanted life to kind of feel like I was in a sitcom friend group
