One of my fav movies. Scene gives me chills every time. We all do this whether we realize it or not. pick ourselves apart. arguing with ourselves over what we want to look like, and who we "want" to be.
After a life of crime and scamming, Mr. Green is on a mission to find inner peace. He begins to realise that the only way to do this is to be free from his own mind / ego. One by one he begins confronting his deepest fears, until he faces the ultimate - being trapped in a confined space (the elevator). This triggers his ego to react strongly this revealing itself as a controlling would be tyrant, and allows the True Mr. Green to give it notice that he is now aware of its tricks and that it will no longer be calling the shots in his life. The elevator doors open and Mr. Green smiles knowing that he is now free - the ego still exists, but it is no longer in charge.
@self_revealed yeah.. I've been finally learning that... experiencing / shifting etc over the last few years.... It's a really difficult whole other layers of things.. process etc.. when the anxiety is physical... I have cptsd.. and get panic attacks and etc..... but I'm gradually healing / lessening all of that too... just takes a long time... I just keep reminding myself the body is slower to heal than the mind.... I got my mind pretty good with years and years of determination... and I think all that nervous system damage is just residual... slowly slowly improving...

Part of the human experience… but sure feels good when we can finally step back and be the witness
Can someone please explain what is going on here?
