(hooves clopping)
Dear friends, I am not very good at goodbyes,
so we snuck out on the ferry.
I just want to let you all know that
I've had some of the best years
of my life on this island.
(horse neighs)
And when we came here, it was all we had dreamed of.
And along the way, our, our little world here has,
has been home,
adventure, chaos, and peace. (gentle music)
It's been, it's been hell in paradise.
(horse whickers) (wings flapping)
I think at one point, you wake up, you look around you
and you find yourself a stranger in your own world.
And even in your own life.
You can't remember
the dream anymore. (ferry horn blaring)
That's when you realise it's time to move on.
I will wake up mornings and think about this island,
about its people.
And I will miss them
and the dreams that we left behind here.
Take care.
Yours, Charmian Clift. (insects chirping)

I, I, I'm, I think I'm going to throw myself into the book,

I don't know, lots of people saw it.
You know, my, my first album
was apparently charting in the UK.
It's in the Top 20 now, which is, no,
something I never thought was a possibility.
And, um, (exhales sharply)

the rest of the second album.

so you're leaving again, n-now, or-

Six months or something.
Cancer.

- It's the first time ever that I felt
that my life is precious.
Really wish I'd known that sooner.
What about you? Do you, do you find it's precious?
- Life?
Ah, I'm not sure that I do, right now, I think.
- I mean, right now is all there is.
Really wish I'd known that sooner.
But it's sorta too late now. (chuckles)
- Yeah. (hooves clopping)
(customers chattering and laughing)
I don't know if this is a very rude question,
but what do you think you would've done differently?
(customer laughs)
- I think I would have cared much less
about what people think.
I think I would've loved and fucked,
knowing full well that I am not who I sleep with.
Wouldn't have cared about my weight,
(horse whickers)
or that other people judging me
has really nothing to do with me.
I would've loved myself better.
I would've not been so afraid of people not wanting me.
- Are you scared?
- No.
Not yet.
I'm sure I will be,
but until then, I plan to live as much and as well as I can.
- Thank you.
- For what?
- Perspective. (chuckles)
I know, I think it's just...

constantly hide the truth from yourself.

no, what we have,

you can't really live anywhere else.

Oh.
Thank you.

You've saved my life over and over and over and over again.

(Leonard sniffs)
(Marianne breathes heavily)
(gentle poignant music continues)
(jewellery rattling)
Well, Marianne, it's come to this time,
when we are really this old,
and our bodies are falling apart,
and I think I will follow you very soon.
Know that I am so close behind you that
if you stretch out your hand, - Stretch out your hand,
I think you can reach mine. - I think you can reach mine.
- And I know that I have always loved you
for your beauty and your wisdom.
But I don't need to say anything more about that
because you know all about that.
But now I just want to wish you a very good journey.
Goodbye, old friend.
Endless love.
I'll see you down the road.
Leonard. (calm upbeat music)
