Cast Away

We both had done the math. She added it all up and knew she had to let me go. I added it up, and knew that I had lost her. 'cos I was never gonna get off that island. I was gonna die there, totally alone. I was gonna get sick, or get injured or something. The only choice I had, the only thing I could control was when, and how, and where it was going to happen. So I made a rope and I went up to the summit, to hang myself. I had to test it, you know? Of course. You know me. And the weight of the log, snapped the limb of the tree, so I couldn't even kill myself the way I wanted to. I had power over nothing. And that's when this feeling came over me like a warm blanket. I knew, somehow, that I had to stay alive. Somehow. I had to keep breathing. Even though there was no reason to hope. And all my logic said that I would never see this place again. So that's what I did. I stayed alive. I kept breathing. And one day my logic was proven all wrong because the tide came in, and gave me a sail. And now, here I am. I'm back, talking to you. I have ice in my glass. And I've lost her all over again. I'm so sad that I don't have her. But I'm so grateful that she was with me on that island. And I know what I have to do now. I gotta keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?

Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks) - quote from Cast Away, 2000.

***
Quando tudo está errado, tudo mesmo, cada simples coisa fora do lugar e eu não só me sinto, mas realmente estou incapaz de fazer algo para mudar, completamente impotente, tudo o que me resta é esperar a maré trazer algo novo.
Talvez a maior lição que eu aprendi na vida seja essa, esperar quando não posso mais lutar.
Continuo sobrevivendo, fazendo tudo que é necessário, sonhando, esperando que a sorte ou o acaso me permitam sair dessa ilha.
Mas nunca mais será igual.
