Sometimes I wish I could walk around with a HANDLE WITH CARE sign stuck to my forehead. Sometimes I wish there were a way to let people know that just because I live in a world without rules, and in a life that is lawless, doesn’t mean that it doesn’t hurt so bad the morning after. Sometimes I think that I was forced to withdraw into depression because it was the only rightful protest I could throw in the face of a world that said it was all right for people to come and go as they please, that there were simply no real obligations left.
Certainly deceit and treachery in both romantic an political relationships is nothing new, but at one time, it was bad, callous, and cold to hurt somebody. Now it’s just the way things go, part of the growth process. Really nothing is surprising. After a while, meaning and implication detach themselves from everything. If one can be a father and assume no obligations, it follows that one can be a boyfriend and do nothing at all. Pretty soon you can add friend, acquaintance, coworker, and just about anyone else to the long list of people who seem to be part of your life, though there is no code of conduct that they must adhere to. Pretty soon, it seems unreasonable to be bothered or outraged by much of anything because, well, what did you expect?
Elizabeth Wurtzel – Prozac Nation. Young & Depressed in America: A Memoir
Ora 00:32, marti, 11 august, citind asta, imi vine sa plang. Nu de singuratate sau de dor, de melancolie sau altceva de genul. Imi vine sa plang pentru ca e atat de adevarat, atat de potrivit. Depressed in America? La fel ca depressed in Romania, fara nici un fel de schimbare.
That is soo true.
nu poate fi decat rau, atunci cand rautatea devine normala
dar nu vreau sa ma gandesc la asta, sunt in concediu
I think that’s just another view of life. Indeed the values and the way a human is perceived are changing, as they have changed many times throughout history. I think it is too complex for the human mind to gather all the views in one realistic approach towards meaning of life and how to live, or maybe it cannot be only one way, or maybe there is nothing like and everything is much too simple and the human mind cannot accept it and seeks for kind of stuff to give a sense. Even though humans are so similar, we are so different. Every idea and view towards life influences the rest of our concepts, for some concepts they have a good influence, for other a bad one, so you cannot say one is it good or not; it depends a lot on the circumstances, on the context; it is relative to each individual and to its own past experiences. As for me I don’t like it either that people are behaving like that, but I am quite reserved as I don’t know enough; it was proven to me in many times that things are more complex … and in other times “a cigar is nothing more than a cigar”. Just a personal choice for anybody; accept it or stay away from it.
