    A thought is born. It consumes old ideas to fill the void. The thought cries out and creates more thoughts. The thoughts cannibalize each other until one remains. A thought that is not voiced fades way.

    I realized This is exactly how l've viewed the world but too ambiguous that I couldn't express in any lanquage, any word.
    It turned out The language which could express this abstract nihilistic idea was Gökalp Gönens' film.
    Thank you. Now I can say to my parents and my friends "This is how I feel about the world." just by sending this RUclips link.

    Did wonder, if you put a part of the creature through the door from this side, whether the hole in the door would close up, in the same manner it does for the creature.
