I know that I wanted to spend some time after work tweaking and personalizing my blog more, but being short-staffed has really put a damper on things.
That being said. It's the weekend! Saturday and Sunday nights I have set aside to take a break from my reading challenge. This ties into my alterhumanity, I promise.
Lately, I've been itching to rewatch the movie "You Can Live Forever", which is a kind of hard movie for me to watch since it hits pretty damn close to home for me. I was hesitant to watch this movie since I wasn't sure if it was going to lead to a new soulbond, or if it was going to lead to another fictionkin identity. I'll also brush on the fact that months before this movie was even announced, the name Marike kept coming to mind like an intrusive thought...
I won't go into all the nitty, gritty details, but much like Jaime, I did fall for a JW woman. It was a hard watch when I finally broke down and watched it, but man, I can relate to Jaimie's plight pretty much all around regarding her relationship with Marike. There are some things in the movie that are parallel to the JW woman in my life, which only made it harder.
After I watched it, it just felt more like Jaimie is a heart-type for me, in that I identify with her and not as her. I just feel like, given what the movie is about, and my own experiences, it should have made sense if Jaimie was a fictionkin identity, instead of a hear-type, but in all honestly, I feel better with her being a heart-type instead of an actual identity.
As I'm typing this up, I currently have this video on loop, yet again.
We'll see what happens if I decide to watch it again tonight.
