K: Stop living your life like youre in some kind of movie.
A: Excuse me?
K: Stop trying to cast your love instead of just meeting him.
A: When I meet him, I'll know.
K: Im not so sure. Love isnt always a lightning bolt, you know? Maybe sometimes its just a choice.
A: Well, thats easy for you to say! You're flying to Argentina to meet the love of your life!
A: Thats just it. I dont know that Paolos the love of my life, but I've decided to give him the chance to be. Maybe true love is a decision. You know, a decision to take a chance with somebody, to give to somebody. Without worrying whether they'll give anything back. Or if they're gonna hurt you, Or if they really are the one. Maybe love isn't something that happens to you. Maybe it's something you have to choose.
K: So what do I do?
A: Well, you could start by putting all of those fantasies of true love where they belong, into your work of fiction.
