Black Swan


In case you feel like watching some other films, do yourself a favor - postpone it and just watch Black Swan now. It's Natalie Portman at her best. And, the plot is as psycho as one could enjoyably tolerate. Spellbinding and dark twisted.

But then, if you are still about to see Inception...I give up. Why can't you just be more recent? Sheez.

Self-Absorbed

I am narcissistic.

There, I said it. Hence, the picture below.

There really is no need to post any image for this post yet I somehow managed to conveniently attach my picture.

Narcissism verges on self-absorption.

But answer me honestly: who cares about other people's need more than his own?

A person in love?

Does being in love change a self-absorbed person? Does he think more of his partner's welfare more than his own?

For the sake of argument, let's just say love makes a self-centered person less so.

But does he not care more about his partner more than himself because the partner makes him happy? In other words, the partner's welfare is more of a person-in-love's concern because he (person-in-love) gets to enjoy a feeling he will not feel if he does not care more about his partner.

FYI, this is the meds talking. I'm currently ill and this "lucid interval" allowed me to publish this post. Needless to say, my mind is tossed up right now.

And, yep! I'm in love. F**k Freud!
