In psychology, we learnt of a defense mechanism called displacement.
And then I picked up George Orwell's Animal Farm.
And then I watched Campus Confidential, which in a very Hollywood "chick flick" fashion tried to explain the bottomline of Animal Farm.
"Sometimes, the oppressed becomes the oppressor and that could be equally dangerous"
We're all walking around with somethings hanging over our heads. We carry our lives with us. And then we cross others' paths. Sometimes, there's a holy union and sometimes, there's a hellish drift. And then we make it about ourselves.
Comfort is different for different people. Some delight in eating excessive junk food. Some listen to music. Some sit by the window and sip coffee. Some read. And some, like me, watch movies.
What's really fascinating about movies is that they come very close to reality. Yet, in a way they are constructed. And, of course, they draw from real life and then give some to it. And this cyclical relationship moves me like no other. What are the odds of being brightened up by images moving on a screen.
I guess we all have our comfort zones. We only take some time to find them, to find pleasure in the liberty of sulking! And making it all worthwhile. :)
PS - What makes you happy?
