inception

I would not advise anyone to watch the movie, 'Inception' in any other state other than sober. The first 13 minutes of the film happened, and I had to call my best friend to help bring me back to earth. 

 

The first time you realise and get introduced to the dreams and how there is a chance any scenario might be a dream; you start expecting it. 

 

And for the most part I just had to surrender to not knowing and ultimately believing that there will be a reality in which the main character, truly has and experiences all that continues to haunt him - his children. 

 

I almost thought it would never happen actually; but what relief! Because for me it's always there is that one thing that centers you and bring you back here - for me it's music. I know I am alive becasue I love to sing and I enjoy music and how it's able to make me feel emotions. Now words; just sound manipulation; magic; play. 

 

So Inception really, is about control, among other things. And just how far gone into the depth of existence and reality 

 

I am always intrigued just by the idea of like, things start existing the moment we think about them and especially once you say it; it's done. It exists. 

 

Because then, I think before it's even in its final form - there is a universe where you have done it already and it may have happened before or it's still yet to happen. It is right - you are the creator. 

 

In Inception, the main character goes back for his friend and it's like YEARS later. But this is like what; alternate universe type thing. Because well, I don't know it's pretty confusing at some point. 

Then I continued watching - I think. Well, I hope. Okay yeah. When a dream is 5mins; it feels like an hour.

So everything is a ripple effect; we’re all interconnected. Everything everywhere all at once. Because it’s an idea we’ve seen before and seen is a what? Dream or experience?

I would say Inception for me is a movie I would continue watching - then like writing and continuously evaluating what my response and view each time. Maybe as a marker of the years, and me and my evolution and time in this world. 

Watch if you love psychological thrillers. Also shout out to Leonardo; he's been at it!
