"I weep because each time he knelt beside my banks, I could see in the depths of his eyes, my own beauty reflected"
My Jaw literally dropped. I was experiencing mental orgasm!

love this!

this video could of easily ended up a cheesy misinterpretation, good job!
I wasnt sure what to think of the end though, the lake seeing its own beauty reflected. Does that mean the lake (society? other people?) is also self-absorbed?
I guess what it really means is, you can never truly know oneself or your environment, only that which you can perceive (beauty is in the eye of the beholder)

there is not a female counterpart?

@vincentglassisaghost the ending bit sounds like it's from Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist. Although the story spans only the prologue of the book.

This was just amazing. It had such a deep impact on me. Specially the end was a real “eye-opener”. Like the moment when adam and eve bit into the apple and saw the “truth”.. really nice “oohh-wow effect”..just fantastic.. I’m still lost in your words.. really good .. the music aswell!

did you write all of the text? i've never heard the end bit about the lake, i thought it very powerful. i am curious to know where it is from.
beautiful job.

Thanks. I read a variety of retellings of the myth and then wrote the script out of all of the various pieces swirling around in my head. It references several existing ones but is an original synthesis fresh out of my mind. Glad you like it. :)
