Sometimes I enjoy the narrative of my life better than actually living that narrative. But what else can you do, except pursue a hedonistic life style while in reality living a very mid one at best.

Ok well so far my two cents, always happy to spread the cheer

Jane, you make a really good point. I’m not sure what the answer is if there is one.

My hope is that if i complain about this problem for long enough, and in many different ways, someone much smarter than me will comment the answer and tell me what it is.

If/when that happens, I’ll be sure to let you know :)

This was a fun and interesting read, Max.

I remember when I first read, Beckers denial of death and how much of a mindfuck it was at the time. You cover a lot of what he said really well.

Also, I have a feeling you’ve already heard of him, but just in case you haven’t, Albert Camus and his absurdism might be right up your alley :)

Thank you so much Michael! I really appreciate that :)

Yes, I'm still reeling from Becker lol.

OMG I LOVE CAMUS. The Stranger is my favorite novel ever - so much so, that I very nearly adopted Meursault, the protagonist's name, as my internet alias!

That would have been an awesome internet alias! I really like Camus and The Stranger as well. It’s incredible :)
