To Your Eternity E5 Full Reaction

Your reaction was great 😊 I cry every time I watch this episode, I feel those that understand loss can empathise with loss much more, I guess it is something we cannot truly understand until we experience it ourselves. Crying as you did to me just shows you are someone that knows something of such loss, its a life experience that doesn't get talked about much, maybe because people often avoid thinking about it. Thanks for sharing your genuine feelings, there is value in that To me it seemed to say that Parona was from a different village, after her sister died Parona was banished as punishment for avoiding the selection. Banishment was a fairly common punishment in tribal societies as without the aide and protection of the community the banished individual would likely suffer a slow death from malnutrition, illness or exposure. Alone in the wild any injury that keeps you from hunting or gathering food is likely to be fatal. In reality if a group from a village comes across a single stranger from somewhere else they would likely assume they were banished and likely avoid them (seen as untrustworthy or dangerous} Parona was very young though and also a girl so it makes sense that another village may accept her, though it seemed she still lived alone and only really got close to March. To me this makes too much sense and is painfully accurate, Parona lost trust in adults and only formed a bond with someone she could relate to, a girl younger then her who seemed to be lonely. To Parona march was all she had, so it seems she fully lost what little meaning she was living for when march died. A painfully accurate look at how severe loss can damage and even destroy a person. Made myself cry thinking through this 😅 Thanks for reading and thinking about some uncomfortable truths we all share
