Brokeback Mountain

Barbara recently shared her reaction to Brokeback Mountain at Prodigal Daughter. This is what Barbara took away from the movie:
Sometimes love hurts. Sometimes love and lust become so intermingled that they become two halves that make up a whole and can't be separated.

Is it worth it to love with such intense passion if you know you will end up devastated in the end?

The one time I had that kind of relationship it lasted two years - and it took over two years to get over it. I still carry pain and fond memories. Would I do it again? No, not if I knew it would have the same outcome.
I so appreciate Barbara. Her posts are some of the most real words that I have ever read. If you haven't already I recommend that you subscribe to her blog. It is insightful reading.

  1. Bob, I just added to the Brokeback post, after "sleeping on it". I'd like your reaction to my new thoughts too.
