Antichrist Page #3

Okay? Keep breathing.

Five, five and five.

You're almost there.

You're almost there. You're doing great.

...Five.

We're there, we are there.

There, you told me.

You did it.

You learned something.

Didn't you?

You did beautifully.

You did beautifully.

I miss him so much.

I've been afraid of here before.

Yes, it seems likely.

I just didn't know it was fear.

I became afraid, and I stopped writing.

What was different, the last time?

I heard a sound.

Nick?

Nick!

Nick!

Nick!

Nick!

You didn't hear Nick screaming.

Apparently not.

And because you experienced something

that you can't explain rationally,

you placed Eden very high

on the pyramid chart.

Eden was the catalyst

that triggered your fear.

You jumped to conclusions...

and tied the emotional event with a place.

When you feel threat, it's natural to react.

If the danger were real,

your fear would save your life,

because your adrenaline would

be used for fight or flight.

But what you're experiencing

is panic, nothing more.

The scream wasn't real.

Stop!

Calm down.

You shouldn't have come here.

You're just so damn arrogant.

But this may not last.

Have you thought of that?

Oak trees grow to be hundreds of years old.

They only have to produce one single tree

every hundred years in order to propagate.

May sound benign to you, but

it was a big thing for me to realize that

when I was out here with Nick.

The acorns fell on the roof then, too...

kept falling, and falling,

and dying, and dying.

And I understood that...

everything that used to be

beautiful about Eden,

was perhaps hideous.

Now I could hear

what I couldn't hear before.

The cry of all the things that are to die.

It's all... very touching...

if it was a children's book.

Acorns don't cry.

You know that as well as I do.

That's what fear is.

Your thoughts distort reality...

not the other way around.

Satan's Church -

Satan? Jesus!

Nature is Satan's Church.

What?

Well, there you have him.

That was his brother.

Nick?

He drifted away from me the last time.

He was always out and about.

He might have made more of an effort

to be there for me.

You look like you slept well.

Thanks, I did.

I just wanted to say how happy

I am that you're here.

I love you, darling.

Did you have a good sleep?

I've just been having a lot of...

crazy dreams.

Dreams are of no interest

in modern psychology.

Freud is dead, isn't he?

Yeah.

What are you doing?

Look!

I'm well again.

I'm cured.

I see clearer.

I'm fine.

You can't just be happy for me, can you?

Chaos reigns.

I'd like to do one more exercise.

It's like role playing.

My role...

is...

all the thoughts that provoke your fear...
