He said to me, "You're so clumsy. If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead." And I thanked him. He pushed me in the water and I hated him so much for that. And all I could do was thank him.<br />Freedman: Why couldn't you say you hated him?<br />Hawkeye: I couldn't. I couldn't say that.<br />Freedman: Why? <br />Hawkeye: I couldn't. I couldn't even think it. I loved him.<br />Freedman: So you altered the event. He didn't push you in. He only pulled you out. And with that little piece of reality safely tucked away so was your conflict."<br /><br />And that whole exchange applies to so many things....<br /><br />I once had a conversation with someone (don't ask how we got into the topic) about why someone who was sexually abused by someone they knew/cared about wouldn't immediately hate them, or report the event.<br /><br />Well, despite the fact that this is just a TV show, scripted, and about a much less...sensitive...topic, it's still very effective in describing that kind of situation I find.Monsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18232595341042871436noreply@blogger.com
