I remember a time. I was some young age, 4, 5, 6. Well however old I was whenever Romeo + Juliet was popular. And I remember seeing Leonardo Dicaprio hold some priest or apothecary or some random cathedral dweller at gun point. Towards the head the gun was pointed and I was confused. I was confused why Leo was doing this and I asked my mother, "why?"(.?) She told me that he was going to kill him, which he wasn't, and so I asked why he was pointing the gun at his head and not his heart if he was intent on slaughter. My mom told me that the brain controls the bodily functions, well not that but of the sorts, even the heart. So the mind is more important than the heart. I thought the heart was the center of life. This really was a revelation for me. It changed me and the memory of the exact time is still lucid. I'm connecting things that I'm hinting at but not explicitly acknowledging. It was made in 1996 so I was 5 or six. More so probably 5 than six because my birthday is late in the year.
