realization.
-Michael
it was never like this
when i was young
i wonder when it changed
-Kim
maybe when you grew up and realized that the world isnt what you thought it was... have you ever seen finding neverland?
-Michael
yeah
idk i really felt like when i was little
i had no expectations for anyone or anything around me
unless it was subconscious i honestly felt as if anyone could do anything and anything could happen and it wouldnt change how i thought about it
-Kim
i like the idea that finding neverland had... that everyone has something that happens to them that makes them grow up. and then everything changes. like. you go from that world with no expectations and from living in that naivity, you see how people really are
can you think of a moment like that?
where like. you started to see things differently?
-Michael
i know it was like
freshman year
in highschool probably
where it clicked
because before then
i didnt care about much
exept having fun
-Kim
yeah. thats about the same time for me too.
-Michael
it honestly might have been
when i read
his dark materials
-Michael
after reading that book
idk i thought about alot
and its like
a conscience
bigger and more thoughtfull and more analytic took the others place
-Kim
whats that book about?
-Michael
its a trilogy..first book is about this girl traveling to find her father who is this scientist. but its taken place in this like fantasy world where these like animal shifters are with all children and its like
throughout there childhood they have these animals that can shift into other animals and once they become "of age" the animal stops shifting and just stays as one animal. and during the story she finds her dad and all this trajic stuff happens and her bestfriend dies and she gets stuck in other dimension
or another world i guess and there she meets this boy who helps her and the boy has this knife that can carve wholes in the world that bring them to different dimensions..and they travel to hell and learn about death and what happens and they cut a whole out of hell so all the souls can all be relived in everyday nature
like trees and grass and stuff like that. and then in the last book she finds out what her dad was doing the entire time and he was trying to use her to get closer to god...like the actual god...and to kill him. which he does...and then the boy and the girl fall in love but cant be together because theyll die because there from seperate worlds and they must return to there own world so they say goodbye and tell eachother to meet in this one area
and this area is the same in all the worlds theyve been to and they dont know why...its this garden. and its in everyone of the worlds
and at the end there both just sitting on opposite ends of this bench in different worlds wishing they were with eachother
do u think
that beacuse during the time that i was becoming an adult..i was reading such a sad book that made me feel such a strong emotion that it impacted how i feel now. and will feel forever?
-Kim
oh man.
i never even thought of it like that.
like. at the time you were reading it was an influential time. so whatever you would have like read was what would have impacted you the most? ah. thats crazy
or like. whatever you felt most.
i dont know what to think off that.
-Michael
