Would You Choose to Love Someone If You Knew Heartbreak Was Inevitable?

2026-06-30T15:59:39.119+08:00

A Reflection and a Review on First Love (2018)

Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Love

There are movies that entertain us, and then there are movies that quietly stay with us long after the credits roll. First Love (2018) is one of those rare films.

Most romantic movies ask a simple question: "Will they end up together?" But First Love asks something much deeper:

"Would you still choose to love someone if you already knew how it would end?"

It is a heartbreaking question because, in reality, none of us are promised forever.

First Love Official Trailer

Love Isn't Always Measured by Time

Starring Aga Muhlach and Bea Alonzo, First Love tells the story of Nick, a man trying to move on from a painful past, and Ali, a woman who continues to embrace life despite carrying a secret that changes everything. Their relationship begins like many love stories—with laughter, hope, awkward moments, and genuine companionship.

But unlike ordinary romances, this one carries an invisible countdown.

Every smile becomes more meaningful.

Every conversation feels more precious.

Every moment together feels like something borrowed from time itself.

The movie reminds us that love isn't measured by how many years two people spend together. Sometimes, a few months filled with sincerity, sacrifice, and genuine happiness can leave a greater impact than decades spent without truly appreciating one another.

Perhaps love was never meant to be counted in years.

Perhaps it should be counted in memories.

The Beauty of Loving Despite the Ending

One of the reasons First Love resonates so deeply is because it reflects real life. We all know that every relationship will eventually end.

Sometimes through distance. Sometimes through misunderstandings. Sometimes through death.

Yet we continue to love. Why?

Because love has never been about avoiding pain.

It's about believing that the joy of sharing your life with someone is worth every tear that may follow. Ali understands this better than anyone. Instead of allowing fear to control her remaining time, she chooses to create beautiful memories rather than mourn the future. She reminds us that courage isn't the absence of fear—it is choosing happiness despite knowing that sadness will eventually arrive.

My Favorite Scene: A Harana Worth More Than Words

If I had to choose one scene that perfectly captures the heart of First Love, it would be the moment

when Nick serenades Ali with a harana after they went through a misunderstanding.

Earlier in the film, Ali shared her "Bakit List"—a collection of dreams and experiences she wanted to fulfill while she still had the chance. One of those wishes was simple yet deeply meaningful: she wanted someone to serenade her the traditional Filipino way.

What made this scene so special wasn't just the song itself.

It was the fact that Nick remembered.

Throughout the movie, Nick is portrayed as someone who often forgets things, gets caught up in his own struggles, and carries the emotional weight of his past. Yet despite all of that, he never forgot the things that mattered most to Ali. He remembered her "Bakit List," her dreams, and the little details that made her smile.

To me, that says everything about love.

Love isn't proven by remembering anniversaries or buying expensive gifts. It's shown by paying attention to the little things—the casual conversations, the dreams someone shares, and the promises they make when they think no one is listening.

Nick could have simply apologized with words, but instead, he chose to fulfill one of Ali's wishes. That harana became more than an apology. It became proof that she was his priority.

In a world where people are often too busy to notice one another, there's something incredibly beautiful about someone remembering the small things. Sometimes, the greatest expression of love isn't saying, "I love you."

It's saying, "I remembered."

That scene stayed with me because it reminded me that genuine love is found not in grand gestures but in consistent thoughtfulness. Nick's willingness to make Ali's remaining days meaningful showed that love is ultimately about choosing someone—not just once, but every single day.

"People may forget dates, places, or even conversations. But when someone truly loves you, they rarely forget the things that matter to your heart."

Mortality Gives Love Its Meaning

The film also presents an uncomfortable truth that many of us avoid thinking about:

Life is temporary.

We often postpone important conversations because we assume there will always be tomorrow.

We delay saying "I love you."

We cancel family dinners.

We become too busy for the people who matter most.

But First Love quietly asks us:

What if tomorrow never comes?

Sources: http://said-fred.blogspot.com/2018/10/review-of-first-love-healing-heart.html

Instead of making the movie depressing, this realization makes it surprisingly hopeful. Knowing that life is limited doesn't diminish love. It makes love infinitely more valuable. Every hug lasts longer. Every goodbye matters. Every ordinary day becomes extraordinary simply because it is shared with someone we love.

Is Grief the Price of Love?

Perhaps the film's greatest lesson is that grief is not the opposite of love. Grief is proof that love existed.

The pain we feel after losing someone reflects the happiness they once brought into our lives. If we choose to avoid love because we're afraid of heartbreak, we may avoid pain—but we also miss out on the very experiences that make life meaningful.

The movie suggests that heartbreak is not evidence that love failed.

Rather, it is evidence that love mattered.

My Personal Reflection

Watching First Love reminded me that we spend so much of our lives preparing for the future that we forget to appreciate the present.

We chase careers. We pursue dreams. We wait for the "perfect time."

But life rarely waits for us.

The film challenged me to appreciate the people around me while I still can. To say thank you more often. To forgive more quickly. To love more honestly. Because in the end, we are not remembered by how successful we became. We are remembered by how deeply we loved.

Final Thoughts

First Love isn't simply another Filipino romance. It is a gentle reminder that every love story is temporary—but that doesn't make it any less beautiful. In fact, perhaps it is because love eventually ends that it becomes so precious.

After watching this film, I realized that the better question isn't whether love is worth the heartbreak.

The better question is, Can a life without love ever truly be called a life at all?

And if I had the chance to choose again...

Knowing all the happiness. Knowing all the pain. Knowing how it ends. I think I would still choose love.

Is Jose Rizal Really Pang-Pelikula? A Review of Bayaning Third World

2026-06-30T14:49:44.544+08:00

When we think of heroes, we often imagine larger-than-life figures whose stories are clear, inspiring, and unquestionable. But what if history is far more complicated than that?

That is the central question explored in the Filipino film Bayaning Third World, directed by Mike de Leon. Rather than presenting a traditional biographical story of Jose Rizal, the film follows two filmmakers searching for a "movie-worthy" version of Rizal's life. Along the way, they question not only who Rizal really was but also how history itself is constructed.
