If I often wished the world were a different place, I also knew-and horror movies helped reinforce this-that it never would be, a realization that in turn led me to a mode of acceptance.
In the book "White" by Bret Easton Ellis, the author expresses a desire for a different world while simultaneously acknowledging its unchanging nature. This conflict between wishing for change and accepting reality reflects a deeper understanding of human experiences. Through the lens of horror movies, he reinforces the notion that the world is often dark and unyielding.
This recognition fosters a sense of acceptance within Ellis, as he learns to navigate a world that often disappoints. The interplay between desire and acceptance highlights the complexities of human emotions and the struggle to find peace in an unchanging environment.
