We both had done
the math, and--
Kelly added it all up.
She knew she had
to let me go.
I added it up,
knew that I'd--
I'd lost her.
'Cause I was never gonna
get off that island.
I was gonna die there,
totally alone.
I mean, I was gonna get sick or
I was gonna get injured or something.
The only choice I had,
the only thing
I could control...
was when and how...
and where
that was gonna happen.
So... I made a rope.
And I went up to the summit
to hang myself.
But I had to test it,
you know ?
Ofcourse.
You know me.
And the weight ofthe log...
snapped the limb
ofthe tree.
So l-l--
I couldn't even kill myself
the way I wanted to.
I had power over nothing.
And that's when this feeling
came over me like a warm blanket.
I knew...
somehow...
that I had to stay alive.
Somehow.
I had to keep breathing,
even though there was
no reason to hope.
And all my logic said that
I would never see this place again.
So that's what I did.
I stayed alive.
I kept breathing.
And then one day
that logic was proven all wrong,
because the tide...
came in,
gave me a sail.
And now, here I am.
I'm back...
in Memphis, talking to you.
I have ice in my glass.
And I've lost her
all over again.
I'm so sad that
I don't have Kelly.
But I'm so grateful that
she was with me on that island.
And I know
what I have to do now.
I gotta keep breathing.
Because tomorrow,
the sun will rise.
Who knows what the tide
could bring ?
