My subconscious tore me to pieces.
Ariadne: Why is it so important to dream?
Cobb: Because, in my dreams we are together.
Cobb: Dreams feel real while we’re in them. It’s only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange.
Cobb: I miss you more than I can bear, but we had our time together. I have to let you go.
Mal: Do you know what it is to be a lover? Half of a whole?
Mal: You keep telling yourself what you know. But what do you believe? What do you feel?
Arthur: With the slightest disturbance, the dream’s going to collapse.
Cobb: Look at you. You’re just a shade, a shade of my real wife. How could I capture all your beauty, your complexity, your perfection, your imperfection, in a dream? Yes, you’re the best that I can do. But, I’m sorry, you’re just not good enough.
Cobb: She locked away a secret, deep inside herself, something she once knew to be true… but chose to forget.
Cobb: The moment’s passed. Whatever I do I can’t change this moment. I’m about to call out to them. They run away. If I’m ever going to see their faces I’ve gotta get back home. The real world.
Some lines from the movie really strikes a chord in me, just sharing with a slight re-arrangement to match how I actually feel or hear from the whole story. Guess I could relate to it in a different aspect and in general, life.
People dream of happiness, to know how it feels like to be in love, to be in control of something that makes them happy in life. Yet not many people know the true meaning behind a relationship and how little things can affect the feelings between 2 people. Sometimes people hold on, for different reasons – mainly because they knew what they had before and believe that things will change for the better. However, when this dream collapses, you wake up to reality that is harsh and you realize that you have been obsessed with your own dream and never realizing that the moment has long gone – nothing is going to change. You come back to the real world eventually because you choose to lock yourself away and try to forget, be it returning with regrets, hatred, remorse or simple happiness that you once remembered from these memories.
On a side note, Leonardo DiCaprio definitely has a home run with Inception. Ellen Page is as usual, just an eyecandy with the average sidekick acting skills, along with Joseph Gordon-Levitt. But best film I’ve watched so far this year. Christopher Nolan, impressive !

It’s been awhile since I last heard such a good collaboration. 
I’m not a fan of Miley Cyrus but this 16 years old did a great job on this Miley Cyrus medley, topping it up with a almost-like-MV music video. She certainly has a great voice to begin with and as usual, I like to feature cute girls who can play their own instruments ! Of course I wouldn’t be so cruel to feature just a Miley Cyrus song (hur) ..so enjoy the other video ‘Pyramid’ !
Love the acoustic version of this song by
