What is the meaning of the monster in stories? The seven basic plots: Overcoming the Monster

Overcoming the monster is an ageless story about what to do when we encounter evil, chaos, death, threat and the unknown in our lives.

Great video! My first thought watching this was about the to amigdala and opponent processing for threat detection both within the individual and then between individuals. The opposing sides of the nervous system one that says there are no threats, as we see here. And one that always sees threats, not seen in this story but seen in Don quixote charging at windmills. The people who see the crisis as an opportunity start to prey on the community. My instinct is to say they haven't seen that the opportunity to help would be more rewarding that might just be my bias That guy who was worried about missing out on business hasn't realised the relevance of the situation in front of him.

Dude! That’s awesome. Hey man can you summarize what opponent processing is for me by chance? Oh any by the way, my brother has been hounding me to read Don Quixote because he thinks it relates so well to my story project. Maybe I’ll have to get your take on it once I’ve read it
