Whoa, crazy. I just saw this in my recommendations after watching a dunkey video. Thing is though, I've never seen that goblin video that's being referenced.
My dad was a flight crew chief and airplane mechanic during WW2.When things would go wrong with the planes they blamed gremlins.In fact there is a Bugs Bunny cartoon from WWz where Bugs is a pilot and has an encounter with a gremlin messing with his plane.
your separation of the "fat world" and the "skinny world", and how they're equally as "real" as the other was thought provoking. As we grow up, we start to define "real" as what is defined through the strict parameters of the material world. However, we (and especially children) experience the immaterial world just the same - as a conscious experience. If we define "real" as what one can consciously experience, then the immaterial and imagination of a child is just "real" as anything else.
I'm honestly sick of these goblins, this is the 7 time this month that they've tricked me into a trap by leaving a little trail of meat for me to snack on.
Thanks. It does appear to be going one direction and suddenly veers in another. Not everyone makes the turn, but that's ok. It even surprised me. Definitely a fun piece to write.
As funny as the dunkey goblin comments are this guy made a really good point on not letting our pessimistic adult view affect the kids’s imagination love this guy
I cannot believe how enlightened i feel after this video. Goblins, Real or not, haunt me in every day life. In my perspective, Goblins are different for each individual. Some Golbins are encouragement, some Goblins are Gobblers, others are unforpogging. But to each their own. Goblins are only real if you let Goblins be real. It's like Lionel Felattio said in the 60s, Golbin Goblin, halt your hoblin, fear not he who's green but fear that which is unseen. Goblins ghouls and other haunts are frightful only in flan" I try to live under to those words. Thank you for your video. Very thot provoking.
When I was in the hospital clinging onto life I saw the ether and I saw goblins. Sure they say they were hallucinations but I still get very interested in finding out what that meant. During that time I had to be in restraints for a little while because I was not allowed to get up to use the bathroom and kept trying. I was unsure what was happening but my mind told me that for me this was a sign that I had to let go of my baggage. As I thought I was strapped to 2 large suitcases that were too heavy to lift. To me that could be a correlating idea to get back to where I was as a child before the abuse started happening... The list goes on of things that happened but I really feel like I was between realms.
Cristina, sorry I took so long to reply to your comment. You gave me a lot to think about. First, I am truly amazed by the courage it took to write this and by the level of trust you show me. It can't have been easy. Second, it breaks my heart when the innocent and vulnerable are abused. And it sounds like you have suffered trauma twice--once when you were being abused and again when you were being treated for it. I am so sorry. But I have great hope for you, Cristina. Your desire to become a child again is spot on. Childhood is when the veil between the fat world and the skinny world is the thinnest. Even Jesus spoke in a similar vein when he said, "unless you receive the kingdom of God as a child you will not enter it." This will take courage and trust which you have already demonstrated in the comment you wrote above. You got this. You and others like us are the reason I write.
