The Fountain.

For the past two days, there is nothing I have thought about more than this movie. A lot of people dont like it, wont like it…because they dont understand. You know, they always say…”Think with someone, and they will love you..make them think, and they will hate you.” This movie is sort of like that. It raised so many questions for me..about life, death, rebirth, existence.

The sky plays a major role in every religion. EVERY religion. The sky. Our creator comes from the sky..or so we are told.
This is true. In a very primitive sense, of course. Human origins have been found in exploding stars. Star dust. Our life cycles are the same as stars. Fetal, childhood to adulthood, middle age, then death.

In Mayan mythology, their underworld..where souls went to die and be reborn was called Xibalba. This is more commonly referred to as Orions Nebula. Orions Nebula is a Nebula where new stars are born…all of the time.

Its starting to make more sense to me. We come from up there. We probably go back up there.

    God, I am watching the movie now, and it is freaking me the fuck out. I need a fucking Xanax or something. It’s so damn sad.

    I’ll admit that I don’t understand most of it, except for the parts with him and her. I don’t get the book part and the other part. Maybe something will happen and it will click in my head. There’s 21 minutes left.

    It’s not the best movie to watch when you have been having anxiety problems.
