You Got Served (2004)

Hard truths about love:

1. Everybody’s love looks different. 

2. Not everyone one can love you the way you need. That doesn’t mean they love you any less. That also doesn’t mean you need to stay. 

3. Sometimes the most loving thing is letting go. 

Words have memories, they have witnessed so many things in history so far. If you know how to look at them, you can see the scars, the traces (i.e., the suggestions), the stories engraved on them. Words have words in their bellies, and they save them to be searched for those who really want to know the truth. The true history lies in their bellies in pieces, waiting to be found (or be awaken). History does not repeat itself, it mumbles in its sleep.

If I speak, I am condemned. If I stay silent, I am damned!

You ask me what forces me to speak? a strange thing; my conscience.

Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
