I am not alone

RemoveJueidu I'm only 25 years old. Why do I feel so jaded, fucked over, discontent, mistrusting and exhausted? Because power corrupts, because willful ignorance isn't against the law, and because people insist on believing and teaching things that aren't true.

      Thanks you guys. I felt like an asshole for saying it but the support helps. I used to believe that happy people just weren't paying attention, and while I still feel that's probably true, what I didn't realize is that maybe those happy peo...ple USED to pay attention, whereas I had been assuming they had never bothered. But it occurred to me that the closer attention I pay, the less happy I become, and that the same thing has probably happened to others, so maybe this lack of attention being paid to the crazy shit going on is just a survival mechanism against alcoholism, hard drug use and suicide. Now the question I'm grappling with is, considering everything, do we deserve to be happy?
