    A kiss on the scar ... the healing power of love and intimacy. "I'm glad we both really suck at dying." I think my heart just broke. ❤

    Glad this conversation was had by two different yet similar people at different stops on their journey of life. It’s good to have these conversations to realize we all were at one point on that same road, but someone or something caught our attention to make pit stop. This short brought back many memories of my scars and hope I can have them visible like these two Great Actors did and share with others. Many thanks for this brilliant film.

    I cried really hard watching this. It's a reality for me. I have had the same conversation with guys for my scars. And most of them never understood. And probably never would. I would feel worse about my self for being different.

      Never forget you are 5,000 years old. You carry the stories and the lives of generations of your DNA who lived and died the anxieties you feel. Just try to imagine your direct ancestors who lived exactly your feelings. It’s totally indisputable. Once you feel them, and realise you are not an endpoint, but a continuum of your DNA, your personality becomes clearer to yourself. And you will be happier.

    I think people underestimate the dangers of teenage life. Teenagers are so ‘confused’ and boomers think they’re ‘going through phases’ but in reality those phases can kill someone. literally and figuratively.

    Our lives are full of stories and events that are the result of our experiences. Being able to extheorize them is not always easy; but the attempt to do so allows us to better understand these experiences and give new meaning to them. The script is very good. Agile and responsive steering. Deep, vertical actions. Really enjoyed!

      My very first boyfriend 😍❤️ I was in the army and my other half cross the street and he was holding my hand I ended up with a broken arm the love of my life was on the sidewalk dead, after about four weeks I couldn't understand why wasn't me why didn't I die with him, so I tried to take my life, what do they call that survivor's guilt? I never stop thinking of Erich!😢🥺😔 I loved him so much and never had dealt with death before in my life nobody. And of course I was in the army I could not talk about it with anybody and it was too much for me to handle, so I tried to take my life.Couldn't discuss it because you weren't allowed to be gay then when you were in the army I would have gotten a dishonorable discharge. So I didn't discuss it with anybody lots of doctors but when I was 22 I met somebody and was with him until I was 45 years old

      But I also am happy for you that you meet someone you love now. ❤
      I almost tried as well, just a couple months ago, I came out as a transgender-male and gay, and I was with a ton of people with my hair cut short and someone called me a girl. I just left and went to where we were staying and I thought I could kill myself there but my sister had followed me so I didn't. Looking back I am still not sure if I should have done it anyway. I have found a sad-happiness. Happy I am as close as I can be to who I am inside and sad that I will never be able to interact with a male the same way I could have if I had been born a male. I am only fourteen.

    I am visually impaired and gay the one thing I’ve always hated was when someone sits there and says you are right. What they don’t see or I should say feel is being with in your head and knowing exactly how you really feel. I wish people could trade places and see how each other really feel and understand more.

    • @sirdavidoftor3413
      @sirdavidoftor3413 Před 3 lety +1

      I am hearing impaired and gay. I fully concur with you. I want people to understand how hard it is communicate with others. What it feels like to have ask people to speak on the side of my good ear. To ask people to repeat what they said. To teach people all the time how sound works.
      The pandemic, with masks and plastic shields, has not helped.
      I hope that your doing ok.
      Stay safe, stay sane, be well

    God help us from script writers who pepper every conversation with the word “like” as if it were essential connective tissue. It’s completely unnecessary and totally juvenile. It’s like watching a macabre gay version of “Friends “ Writers have a responsibility to elevate and improve, not denigrate the language and belittle it.
