On Valentine's Day, congratulations on the day of all lovers (and on other days) are entitled to accept not only young people, but also those who were captured by love in adulthood. They can love no less passionately than the young, and maybe even more than when they were young. If this sounds like a statement, you can consider it to be so. Cinema and television rarely portray elderly couples in the throes of passion. But when this happens, why do you think they do it so well? Affect years of practice.
Love, old age and cinema
In our cinema, only the film “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears” by V. Menshov can lay claim to the real history of human relations of people in adulthood. Abroad, classic love stories (such as Gone With the Wind) are still at the top of all ratings and polls.
The film by Sergey Mokritsky “Four Ages of Love”, released in 2010, shows the relationship of mature and older people. But the film was shot with a cold heart, art-house cinema crawls out of all the cracks and makes you watch it from a distance, the truth of life in these crevices and disappears.
Otherwise, what we see daily on the body and on the screens is testosterone, which beats a fountain, and this is not bad, just a little like what is happening in real life.
Four ages of love
Endowing us with experience, daily life gradually changes us, sometimes doing it so quickly that we do not have time to notice how the four ages of love go. Youth sweeps rapidly, leaving a scar on the heart from first love, a categorical youth passes with its motto: "All or nothing!" There comes prudent maturity, and then old age very quietly and imperceptibly creeps up in soft slippers. We cannot return the young years, it is not worth it and wish for it. There is no way to change anything, there are only memories or regrets about what was or should be. The past has led us to the present, to the fruits that we use: help, care and love.
To summarize, few women can share a happy family life experience. It often happens that all four ages of love do not bring positive results and the experience of communicating with the opposite sex does not become good luck in life. The turbulent history of human relationships can be interesting, but sometimes leads to futile attempts to arrange your personal life. You can wait for your Rhett Butler for many years, but where is the guarantee that he will come to at least one of the same parties that you will be at. The search can continue until you understand that everyone (even the sexiest of us) comes into a love relationship with his life baggage.
In her declining years, romance does not pass away from life, it simply narrows one's horizons, looking at life realistically. Remembering the path traveled, your four ages of love, you understand that every time you love, you lose a part of yourself, gaining something from another person. It is almost the same as the tail of a lizard, which grows back. It's about the soul. Every love experience teaches us, revealing new facets and shades of love until we learn a lesson and discover this new in ourselves.
Love is not on the ruins of life, but at a high level
We need some courage to open up to a new feeling, it makes us vulnerable, we must trust another person, let him into our world and home. Especially if love comes in old age. No one can guarantee happiness and a better life. We are guests in this life, we can only strive to live out the time allotted to us as fully and happily as possible.
When you inhale the smell of roses or receive them as a gift, do not forget that they have thorns, and looking at the young ones, do not forget how many years it took you to learn to love and enjoy life. Look at the world with young eyes for as long as possible. You can’t get younger, but you can enjoy life with your partner and be happy with your life together.
