This is really beautiful

“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”
Rainer Maria Rilke – Letters to a Young Poet, 1903.

Edward Robert Hughes – A Young Beauty, 1875.

Navillera tells the story of Shim Deok-chul (Park In-hwan), a 70-year-old retired mailman who decides to pursue his life-long dream of learning ballet, something which he did not manage to do in his 70 years of life, first because his father objected , then when he had a family, he was struggling to make ends meet.

He meets Lee Chae-rok (Song Kang), a 23-year-old dancer who became interested in ballet after trying out different sports — and becomes his teacher.

The South China Morning Post states in their review of the series that “Navillera deals with relatable issues of old age, whether you’re the one approaching it or your loved ones are, but while the fear that a diagnosis like Alzheimer’s can cause is clearly evoked by the series, it steers clear of the day-to-day realities of the condition”.

There is a lot of crying to be done with this series. It calls out something at the very bottom of the heart, so sunken so heavy and we know very well it is there.

I picked some really beautiful quotes that resonated with me.

I just followed my emotions

My father who forbade me to dance is long gone. But i have not even danced.

I lived that way all my life and I am 70

I have never done anything I wanted in my life

I have been too busy making ends meet to support my family

Much less dream of it

And now I m finally trying to do what I want

I know I m old and weak but I want to try

I want to give it a shot at least

I want to soar again in my life

I would like to soar for once

I just did what I want to do

I always lived my life listening to what others wanted me to do

What brings you happiness?

This too will pass

It’s ok to fail

I don’t want to dance half heartedly

You work so hard

You will make it

Call him when you think of him. Run to him when you miss him

He is your father and you are his son

He must have been over the moon when you were born and smiled the biggest

Soar like an eagle

The sky is blue

I just happened to look up

And I felt happy

Happiness can be felt in the littlest of details

When you want something fr your heart. You shine brighter than anyone else

I can do and become anything I want

You can throw the ball however you want

I struggled this whole time and I will be struggling tomorrow as well ( referring to learning ballet and a gala show)

But I will still do my best

Just focus on what you have been practicing

The body will remember

These are some beautiful thought provoking mind blowing things that has been said and that touched me deeply.

This is episode of Transcendence 2 and the end of it , right at the end caught me off guard.

“We are always looking for external recognition.

And there have been clients climbing the mountain of societal success and they climb to the top and feel emptiness

They keep repeating the same internal pattern and getting the same result

People work v v hard to present themselves they want the world to see

They get so busy run so fast just to not connect with what they are avoiding

You need to understand the cause of what you went through

My father did the best he could and maybe he did.

If you can isolate the trauma and how it affected you and the individual

It allows to find out who you really are what drives you and allows you to heal the relationship understand what treat person really went through at that time

Nothing in my opinion is more valuable more healing than, not downloading your story but sharing your story

When you share the parts of you that is scary, when you share a part of yourself that you are ashamed of , when you share a part of yourself that you deeply regret you allow the world to see all of you

I would encourage people to share the parts of themselves they have spent a lot of time and energy hiding and watch how free you feel and watch what you can do with that energy”———Philip Mckernan

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are—- Joseph Campbell

“I think the negative comes from we haven’t dealt into who we are

It’s not acknowledging their lives r perfect but that You have put on lens that judges that perfection

The dichotomy of the human spirit the human being is we must endure and face adversity and challenges

It’s part of being human and part of what that drives our quest for enlightenment for spirituality true love

I believe it’s a gift. I believe in the throes of challenge. You have to feel it to heal it. You have to honour it. You have to endure. You have to find help find a way through it. You do have to get through it.

Or you become a victim of circumstance and there becomes a layer a shield to stop love coming in

You can use your circumstances as a weapon and you can use them as an excuse of not being a true reflection of the absolute beauty of you as a human

Or you can say wow that happened to me. What m I going to do with it?

How do I use it to become a better person how can I teach another person to get through the same experience”———Kim Morrison

“Your deepest wound is the source of your greatest gift

It’s your wound and throwing a penny into the deep end of the pool and for you to dive down in terms of fulfilling and finding out

You r out here for a reason. And your mission if you accept it is find that reason and fulfill it”————Artie Wu
