"I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living... or get busy dying."

The problem with the occlumency lessons were several fold. First, Harry, finally faced with an adult who was privy to some of the things he was starving to know, was consumed with finding things how to which he felt he had a right. This was also the reason he looked into the pensieve. He thought that information about the Department of Mysteries was openly being denied to him. Harry wasn't goading Snape; he just wanted to know things and Snape was too busy falling back on his titles. "This may not be an ordinary class, Potter,' said Snape, his eyes narrowed malevolently, 'but I am still your teacher and you will therefore call me "sir" or "Professor" at all times.'" What was more important here, learning or the power balance? Adults think it's okay simply to demand things of children without putting them in context; it is not. Children are not robots; they are small humans who rely on these people to nurture and teach, not demand and manipulate. How can you ever hope to increase children's understanding of a world without context? Secondly, their mutual dislike was calculated to ruin any progress they might make. Snape does not care for Harry and he makes this plain over and over again; he only does all this in the name of his love/obsession with Harry's dead mother. Consider, would he even have switched sides if Voldemort had decided to target the longbottom family instead of the Potters? Did you not understand the significance of the doe patronus? Snape hates Harry on sight, for things over which Harry has no control and could not change if he wished to. Have you any idea what it is like when an authority figure takes against you for no reason that you can control? I do. I grew up with such people. Authority abuse is very different from playground bullying because the abuser is able to cloak their behaviour in their authorty while protecting themself from possible censure. Thirdly, Snape failed to explain things adequately to Harry. He could have explained that his scar might hurt worse in the short term, why this would be and he could have shown Harry some meditation techniques to help him empty his mind. He did none of that. Harry said repeatedly that he did not know how to do what Snape wanted of him but Snape did not listen. He was asking for guidance which he did not receive. This is a teacher who suffers from the curse of knowledge: the idea that he can't adequately pass on his knowledge because it has always been obvious to him and he cannot conceptualise that it isn't to everyone else. I have suffered teachers in this mould. Each time you have to be alone in their presence there is a sense of dread which only engenders fear, and which encourages neither motivation, learning, respect or any wish to practice. I met these people more than five decades ago and I am only now discovering the extent of the damage caused by that long-term interaction. Adults do not always know better than children, particularly when they are emotionally immature adults. Respect must be earned. If you have to rely on a title in order to demand respect you aren't doing enough to earn it in my view. 'Because I said so' has never been a legitimate reason to ask anyone to do anything because that statement is about power, not humanity.

I think there may have been a brief but intense depression just after he learns his wand has broken. He doesn't want to be near Hermione at all. He hastens to borrow Hermione's wand, even though he's barely recovered from Godric's Holow, so he can get away from her and go on watch. His desolation is laid out very starkly at the beginning of Chapter 18. Also, it's worth remembering that the Kubler-Ross stages were originally meant for those accepting their own death. I think they fit far more easily into that specific scenario. I hadn't heard of the 'Tasks of Mourning'. Makes sense to me. I like your style of conversation and discussion without bombarding us with either words or some kind of distracting and anonymous music bed. Do you read Terry Pratchett's Discworld? You may find many interesting themes in there.

Thank you. Relevant and beautiful!❤❤❤💚

You nailed it. It is such a wonderfully weird film. And it is ultimately about love and how that renders us as humans....even if u are are a chicken or a severed moose head

Depends what you mean by meaning.

I really relate to this idea. Been thinking a lot about the importance of fiction in our lives, and this is a pretty validating take on it. This should have more views.

One other thing to remember is that Harry and Voldemort are very, very similar to each other in terms of their lives. Neither knew their real parents. Neither of them had a loving home or a caring upbringing. Both of them had magic their whole lives, but didn't know how to control it completely, or even what they were. Both of them were exceptionally skilled students. They shared a wand core. Both are orphans. Both had tumultuous relationships with their peers- in Harry's case, he was bullied, but in Voldemort's case he was the bully. In an interesting way, I would say that they represent something of an avatar of the dark and the light, respectively. Voldemort is, in many ways, born not of love but of hate and violence. Harry was born of true love. They are mirrors. Harry could easily have become Voldemort, and Voldemort could have become Harry. The difference is both in their choices AND in how much care and support was offered to them by those around them.

You bring up that Aslan mentions he has another name, but then say that is not allegorical cause because it shows its meant to be it's own world. But let's break down how Lewis described that to a girl who wrote to him: As to Aslan’s other name, well I want you to guess. Has there never been anyone in this world who (1.) Arrived at the same time as Father Christmas. (2.) Said he was the son of the great Emperor. (3.) gave himself up for someone else’s fault to be jeered at and killed by wicked people. (4.) Came to life again. (5.) Is sometimes spoken of as a Lamb…. Don’t you really know His name in this world. Think it over and let me know your answer! I think there's a problem here that it's an all or nothing approach. Every element has to be allegorical for it to be an allegory? I don't think so... Nor do I think most stories are equally allegorical. Stories do tend to have meanings and draw inspiration from the real world. But Aslan states the purpose of the series being to allow the children to get to know him (Jesus) in their world. Tolkien's works are by his own admission though he tried to steer away from Allegory very Catholic, but aside from the original war with Melkor very little is directly allegorical. The Final Battle has an anti-Christ and a desecration of the Holy of Hollies, and a final judgement... and when the books aren't directly doing allegory they are still filled with Christian lessons. Yes they are also fantasy adventures that just have fun at times... but the bones are allegory, and the meat is fantasy.

C.S. lewis said it was an allegory for christianism. Doesn't mean he succeeded in making it a good allegory, or not being a fantasy autor of his time. That's one of the reasons why tolkien disliked to write allegories. The story gets in the way of the allegory, the allegory gets in the way of the story.

al·le·go·ry noun a story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one. Are the Chronicles of narnia a pure allegory? A 1:1 allegory? No... but they are by very definition, allegory.

C. S. Lewis was a theologian, and he HIMSELF said that Narnia was a Christian allegory. He said the same thing about the Space Trilogy (Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, That Hideous Strength.) When an author tells you something about their characters, world, plot, or meta, it is canon end of story, which is why such proclamations are called (pun intended) Word of God.

When he said, he was gonna be completley human. That means he suppose to take the idenity of the doctor.

I think that Ro Laren, events from the movies as well as the experience from Q with him being taken down what could have happened had a long term chronic affect on his personality.

i was literally thinking about this, the other day

how can trees be real if our eyes aren’t real

Voyager was so good

The whole alice in wonderland , we all read aloud , we had our maths teacher who discussed the mathematics, equations ,, i like how different school plays ennoucite words .,, like ,, antipethese, & invited to crotchey ~ crow ~ kay... to copy the classic british accent

I agree, I love the pacing of these episodes

This was a great episode that showed us the past and present with the characters setting everything up for the rest of the show to give it some purpose and direction ... rather then just giving us some small throw away dialog on whats happening and pushing the narrative forward too fast leaving potentially lots of plot holes that could be problematic the future , like we saw happen in Season 1 of STD ...

Excellent review of the the Pilot ...I thought it did a great job of showing Picard's current situation and events that will shape the rest of the season ...I am friends with people in there 70s and many struggle with depression and or issues it reminded me of how Picard was in this season , these people were also managers and top of there trade at one time as well...Also in the TNG finally it did show Picard in the future on a vineyard living a more simple life ..This episode sets up things that give him a new purpose that may also be related to Data who is someone he cared for a lot in his past .. Yet becasue of his age and how things have change Starfleet doesn't take him serious ..Its too bad this season got bashed by Youtubbers because i think its great and a lot of people would like it if they gave it a chance ..Season 3 is good but i think its much better if you watch this season first as it gives more of pathway on getting there ... I find season 1 more re-watchable as it is more character driven and reminds me of DS9 in the writing ...Season 3 is awesome but hard to re watch as its based more on reveals and and once you have watched it once all the reveals have less meaning ..

So were there 3 'Soji's' . The Soji, the evil one that had Data skin and eyes, and wasn't there a third? Edit: I forgot, they turned Jean-Luc Picard into a robot😑

Wasn't the biggest VOY fan but Future's End was great and fun , probably one of the best attempts of time travel story since Star Trek 4 , other series have done them since but they felt more janky and not as well executed ..

Season 3 is the best Trek in decades and gives TNG a proper send off ...but i did really enjoy season 1 of Picard and think it gets a lot of undeserved hate ..TNG got me into Trek but DS9 is my fav as well ...Tried getting into Disco but lost me after season 2 ..

Welcome to my world.

Man get over yourself sorry the rain on your parade but what makes you think anyone cares what you think...🎉
