When the monster comes knocking, open the door and greet it

Some movies can't be watched a second time... Just watched it with my son, alas~

At this stage, there are so many things that cannot be touched. I want to tell him that when life goes into darkness and you feel disappointed and painful, there will be "monsters" that will appear. At that time, you will be angry, sad, disappointed, and destroyed... I can understand, and everyone may understand or Try to understand, so when Connor asked "Aren't you punishing me?", no one punished him next, but what about you, my boy, why? ~ I always seem to be asking why, because I can't understand your behavior next time, my childhood was very hard, and the unspeakable fucking experience allowed me to use the most malicious monsters to destroy myself and even those around me. Life, but I don't have it... Maybe it's not, so I can't be "cured", depression is a disease~ But no matter what, I will still give you the best things, and use all my strength until you Destroying it all so easily...I'm really powerless...I really want to tell you: Connor wanted the monster to heal his mother, and the monster told him explicitly that it was more important to heal him. ——That's because mental damage is much greater than physical damage! do you understand?

There's so much I want to say, but sitting together, I can't say a word, that's what this kid is like, doesn't care, so when I started seeing Connor lose his mom and his world would fall apart, my Heart is pulling. Alas... a mother who takes pains but is not cared... alas... the last straw that broke my spiritual world~ This child may never understand, what kind of blow he had when he was growing up as a child~ I She's the worst mom ever...

I work hard, I really work hard~ I work hard

I'm so tired~

"Nightmare Journey" couldn't heal me, it just ripped open my wounds with this "monster" and told me that many of the escape and repression in childhood will be irreversible in adulthood.

I will continue to work hard... I can't heal myself, at least I can't continue the damage. I understand this. I understand even more when I walk on the edge of reason and collapse. It's just... I'm so tired...

A Monster Calls quotes

  • Conor: Your stories never made sense to me.

    The Monster: Because humans are complicated beasts. You believe comforting lies, while knowing full well the painful truth that makes those lies necessary. In the end, Conor, it is not important what you think. It is only important what you do.

    Conor: So what do I do?

    The Monster: What you did just now. You speak the truth.

    Conor: That's all?

    The Monster: You think it's easy? You were willing to die rather than speak it.

  • The Monster: Stories are wild animals... if you let them loose, who knows what havoc they may wreak.
