Multimedia, Nostalgia, and Current Day Events

Sometimes there are interactions or conversations that take place around us that move us at our cores.

A conversation takes place between character Liz and their about to be departed grandmother, with the help of *alien friend, Max’s, powers.

With the recent and sudden passing of my cousin for reasons seemingly “somewhat” shrouded in mystery, but likely a suicide, myself and other family members are left drifting, wondering, and incomplete.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have one more conversation? one more before a parting of the ways?

 

Roswell, Season 1, Episode 4

[Grandma Claudia] Honey Bear. Let me guess. Max.

 

[Liz] Grandma, I guess the thing that I really wanted to say to you more than anything else was just how much you mean to me. And somehow you just always managed to make me feel really special. And I […] I just don’t know what I’m gonna do without you.

 

[Grandma] You’re gonna do just fine. And I want to tell you something. When I look at you, so excited about life I can see myself. And that’s a gift […] a gift I’ll take with me that I’ll always treasure. Promise me one thing […] that you’ll follow your heart wherever it takes you. […] Trust it. Will you do that?

 

[Liz] I will.

[Sustained Beep sound as grandma’s life signs go flat]

[Liz Narrating] The tough thing about following your heart is what people forget to mention that sometimes your heart takes you to places you shouldn’t be […] places that are as scary as they are exciting and as dangerous as they are alluring. And sometimes your heart takes you to places that can never lead to a happy ending.

[Liz] Max, thank you for […]

[Max] It’s okay. Good night.

[Liz] Night.

[Liz Narrating] And that’s not even the difficult part. The difficult part is when you follow your heart you leave normal you go into the unknown. And once you do, you can never go back.
