Film Theory: Neo ISN’T The One in The Matrix Trilogy

This Be The Verse; Philip Larkin

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another’s throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.

Helen Fisher’s Personality Test; The Anatomy Of Love

Helen Fisher’s Personality Quiz has now been taken by over 14 million people in 40 countries. Helen created it to test the degree to which you express four broad styles of thinking and behaving, each associated with one of four basic brain systems: the dopamine, serotonin, testosterone and estrogen systems. We call these four types the:

  • Explorer: those who primarily express the traits linked with the dopamine system.
  • Builder: those who primarily express the traits linked with the serotonin system.
  • Director: those who primarily express the traits linked with the testosterone system.
  • Negotiator: those who primarily express the traits linked with the estrogen system.

We are all a combination of these four trait constellations, but we express some more than others. In fact, it is not unusual to score equally on two (or sometimes three) of these temperament dimensions. Moreover, each of us has a unique combination of overall traits, a unique “personality signature.”

Death. Let’s Talk About It.

We live in a world that is painfully segregated. By age, by income, by politics, race, gender- you name it — we are reminded almost every day that there is an “us” and there is a “them”. I strongly believe that these are almost entirely artificial barriers to human relations. One place that removes all pretense of the “differentness” is on our deathbeds. One day, we will be there. Every. Single. One. Of. Us. Nothing says we are all human like the fact that we will all die one day: Death. Let’s Talk About It. – Thrive Global – Medium
