Hello Versa. And do you good day. Hello, Versa. And do you good day again. Yeah, I'm glad to hear that. Well, okay, my question is about the movie or I'm going to say... What movie? Or just, you know, generally. Movies. In general. Yeah, movies or storytelling. Or what? Storytelling, yes. In your world or in your future. As we have said, the idea of story structure is of paramount importance and exists. It exists in a variety of cultures in a variety of ways that are relevant for the consciousness of those cultures. But the idea is that story structure is an archetypal structure in your consciousness. That's why telling information in the form of a story will stick longer in your memory because it is hitting all the right chords of the archetypal story structure in your consciousness. If it doesn't hit all those chords, you feel that the story was not well told, told and you don't really remember all the things in it. But when it hits all the right chords of the archetypal story structure in your consciousness, you tell those stories over and over and over again and they never get old. It's a part of your makeup. It's a part of the crystallization of your personality structure. Story structure is built in as the most efficient way to communicate and retain information in your reality. So, and then actually the reason I gave you this is that I'm kind of tired of watching the story of a drama in, say, dualism, or, you know, like in three-dimension. Then tell your own stories. Then that's why I'm asking, you know, what is that in your world or, I don't know, maybe in your future? We understand the idea of duality, but we do not experience the negative side. But we understand that in your reality, there is this concept of the challenge presented that that needs to be overcome. Here's the idea, though. You don't have to look at this in a negative way. There is a story that exists in your culture called the story of the premature butterfly. Do you know this? I'm not sure. All right. Well, I will tell it to you briefly. The idea is that you know that caterpillars form cocoons and turn into butterflies, yes? Yes. And that there is a timing to this. One day, One day, one of your people was strolling along and saw that there was a butterfly, as you say, struggling to get out of its cocoon. This person said, well, I will help you so you don't have to struggle, so you don't have to be so challenged by this. And the person opened the cocoon and let the butterfly out. Well, the butterfly just sat there, didn't fly. Its wings were atrophied. They were not well formed.

of your people was strolling along and saw that there was a butterfly, as you say, struggling to get out of its cocoon. This person said, well, I will help you so you don't have to struggle, so you don't have to be so challenged by this. And the person opened the cocoon and let the butterfly out. Well, the butterfly just sat there, didn't fly. Its wings were atrophied. They were not well formed. because you see what the person didn't realize is that if the butterfly does not struggle against the cocoon, the pressure of the cocoon does not push fluid into the wings and cause them to mature. So even though you may think you're helping sometimes by removing the idea of that struggle, you're actually causing more struggle and more damage. So be aware that there is a positive way to understand understand what you may call the polarity and learn how to use it in a balanced way and learn what it is for so that you can have the idea of a positive outcome even when you are incorporating the idea of the negative polarity into the story. Does that help you? Yep. Thank you. Thank you.
