Something That Bothers Me

To Becky:
You should consider reading the book Lycidas... It's one of my favorite books of all time because it's the perfect mix between mythoilogy and a plot line so difficult to understand that it took me nearly 4 months and the whole summer to finsih the book (I won't mention the fact that while reading Lycidas I've read 23 other books but yes...)

No something that bothers me:
I hate the moments when people say that, whenever they are thinking for longer than 30 minutes they get depressed. This is stupid.
People say that they will think about bad things like what they've achieved until now and whether they are any value to this world and the people within.

No.

You aren't

Neither am I and neither are your parents and friends.

But why not think about it? The only way to change something is to see the problem and as Miss Grace pointed out on different occasions and moments in all of our lives: “If the inevitability of human oblivion worries you? I encourage you to ignore it, god knows that's what everyone else does.”

Why deny that we’re going to die? Why deny that you are probably going to die without having achieved anything of value? It’s the truth and by ignoring the truth you won’t make it any less than it is.

Please people, think about the little things you have achieved and then start to make your dreams come true. We only have so little time on our blue world, why waste it by ignoring the thoughts that you should value most.
