"[E]very failure to cope with a life situation must be laid, in the end, to a restriction of consciousness." -Joseph Campbell, The Hero With a Thousand Faces
I have an acquantence who was recently in a relationship with my girlfriend's younger sister. This guy is about six years older than I. I have to say it is rather pathetic to watch his woebegone and helpless whining, like a child screaming for its mother's breast, all over something he has mistakenly chosen to call love but which is really just a desire to be cared for, to thus escape adult responsibilities, to thus remain immature and cling by means of repression to that blissful innocence that cannot be admitted to persist beyond its own natural time.

ReplyDeleteDid he create a Tumblr account just so he could whine on the interwebs?
