The more I know, the more I understand that humans are chaotic, greedy, stubborn and selfish. Doomed by their own nature to repeat the worst of history.
I want to withdraw myself from the world, and just reside in a warm cocoon of cotton candy, masticating slowly on the walls around me, and intermittently basking in the luxury of inconsequential over-sleep to become the literal embodiment of the metaphorical, modern millennial.
Every time the television comes on, or I open my phone to check the news on Facebook, my brain is attacked by an onslaught of white noise. It makes me feel veritgo. Dizzy and sick.
For someone who is so good at bonding with people, I end up hating people. I am just so exhausted. Why are there so many idiotic people in this world, without any basic compassion for their fellow humans? Without any nuance and mindfulness to their worldviews??
No. No. I don't want to think about it.
Life is a constant struggle and thinking about these big questions will make you drown faster. All we can hope for is that our hard work pays off - in the form of a lifesaving jacket so we can bob along, heads above water, not drowning but not particularly comfortable either.
My head literally hurts.
