The doubt

Blame

The responsability

The truth

The lie

The truth is a puzzle and is made up of each piece which is a different story depending on who tells it.

Lying is a defense weapon. Lying about things that can't be told to anyone and that must be swept away. And if happiness is a privilege for a few then it is nonsense.

Becoming an adult also involves learning to defend yourself and discovering that true friendship is a safe place in the middle of the forest and the storm where you can always return, where you can be as you are and who you are, where you can tell her happiness and the truth and where you can be reborn. With some bruises but stronger and no longer alone.

The monster is each of us, for us and for each other. It is the demon to be defeated, the sacrifice that seals the end of childhood. The internal battle to define and form oneself in the sense of giving oneself a shape. Salvation is to become water by following corners and edges in a fluid, delicate way without ever distorting its nature. A feat possible only if you are in good company running along the tracks of time, perhaps shouting at the top of your lungs about a freedom that has been caged for too long.

Aqua is also the title of Ryūichi Sakamoto's main theme. Poetry.
