In The Time Of Cholera
[unknown] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Traveling forward in time, I died twice. Both exactly at the same time, on the same day.

It's my 100th birthday. I'm on a boat where I fall. Someone kicks me into the water.
As I descend into the water depths I see visions of what will be. Only a few are noted before my passing. I struggle to find known success before dying. I'm traveling to fast to know outcome.

Many smiles are shared between me and another. Lots of endorphin producing and incredible moments of intimate ecstasy.

The world changes but I remain true to who I am.





So many things flash past, I wish I could travel trough time slower to experience them in real time.

Remember the movie “A night at the Roxbury”? No? Well, you would definitely remember one of its song which was popularised by Jim Carry by nodding his head with two others in a car. Still No?
♪ ♪ What is love?
Oh baby, don’t hurt me
Don’t hurt me
No more ♪♪
Well, now you surely do remember. So let us answer the question asked fourteen times in the song. What is love? Well definitely it is not roses and chocolates and butterflies, but hey, the song is also screaming twenty-eight times “Don’t hurt me”. So, mathematically ‘hurt’ is double when you ask ‘love’. I am not saying any of this, it is Jim Carry along with Gabriel Garcia Marquez who are saying such absurd things. I am just analysing the song.
Alike many of the readers, I too am a fan of the magical realism fiction “One hundred years of Solitude” which bumped me into another of his great work. Although love stories have never appealed me, you cannot escape this genre in the fiction world.
Love, which is a set of maddening activities that lead to a lot of pain also invokes suffering, waiting, threatening which is all mental and none physical, is beautifully described in this book. This is a story of one Florentino Ariza and his beloved Fermina Daza who fall in love with each other in their early youth. However, when the matter is disclosed to the father of the female here, she is taken away to a distant relative to spend some days away. The trick actually worked and when the father-daughter duo returned to their home, Fermina has had a blurry memory of her lover. She gets married to the most eligible bachelor of the town, a doctor with high strata and affluent income and a family name to support everything Fermina could ever wish for. It was easy for Fermina to move on with her life. A lavish lifestyle including multiple world tour with her husband was an additional reason for her to forget Florentino entirely.

A very very very Disappointing film. I had expected a lot from this movie :/ Don't watch it guys !! My two hours literally got wasted.

The only thing I liked about this movie - two dialogues of it❤️

"I have waited for this opportunity for 51 years, 9 months and 4 days.. That is how long I have loved you❤️"

&

"After 53 years, 7 months, 11 days & nights..my heart was at last fulfilled.." ❤️

Although everyone here in the section comment say the movie is awful I loved it, very much. Some scenes are quite same as I imagined and the aura of story is well proyected on screen. I highly recommend it to watch it. Of Course We all know that books will always be way better than movies, ever.
