When I look at everyone's lives around me, I am just so stunned. For most people, life is nothing more than a cycle of working your ass of all day so that you can make enough money to feed yourself so that you can then wake up the next day to repeat the same thing. Again, and again, and again, until you die.
And I have not been able to cope with this, not at all.
I looked at my future and I was horrified. Nothing but working to live the next day, to then work for the next.
In the past it was even worse. Slavery was a thing, slaves actually chose to live. Why? Why? Why did they choose to live? Why do the Chinese, who work the entire day, choose to live?
is it because in humans survival is the most basic need before all others. So even if surviving means negative outcomes, it is far better, in most people's minds, than being dead.
