Normal people是新的一年里的慰藉,是需要在无数个depressed的时刻捧到手边温暖自己的小青灯。记得她说爱情怎么会是千疮百孔,可谁又可以天然地是一个圆。玛丽安和Connell的爱是我心中最敏感,也是最真诚的爱的样子:I’ve been thinking about New York. The offer. I keep imagining you being there. Writing. 我们是破碎的,在风中哭泣着成长的叶子,是爱尔兰绵延无垠的绿野中荒芜的某一片,但是就像我们最后在阴暗的小阁楼里微笑坦言的那样:There’s been a lot of stuff that’s been difficult and painful. And this would be difficult and amazing. It’s New York. It’s writing. It’d be fucking amazing. Connell. 我们拥抱着一碰就碎的瓷娃娃,单车骑过巴塞罗那棕灰色的小广场,你说金钱让世界变得腐败又性感,我可以在你获得Schol和最棒杂志编辑的那一刻在角落里笑着说声well done,就像你常常以痛吻我,也永远报我以歌。You know I love you. And I’m never going to feel the same way for anyone else. 静静守护你的梦,所以会一边流泪一边鼓励说:But we have done so much good …for one another. 原来我们都不过是normal people,我们都需要很长时间才能学会自由健康地生活和爱。Let that dogwood blossom. There’ll be hell to pay in heaven. For you take every street home. 是这样。

You just need to get it straight in your mind

what you think is fair and good in the world.

And if you think that people should be able to go to college

and get English degrees,…

… And go to Europe and look at art

then you shouldn’t feel guilty for yourself.
