>>3490354I'm quite conscious. Merely reflecting on human nature. We love to suffer, we truly crave it. To be tormented by memories and things we can't control. We purposefully seek out misery and misfortune if only to say we played the game of life as best we could but came up short. To deny yourself the human experience, whether out of fear of rejection or what pain may come, is to cease to be human and to die spiritually, allowing oneself to become an embittered husk. It's only through suffering, through the embrace of every barb and cut that man can truly know how to love. There is no other way that we know how to live, to truly live this thing called life, to know how to love being alive, than to seek out the arrows of misfortune.
