”Yesterday he experienced a sort of dark afternoon of the soul. Some hours of terrible negativity. A sense, essentially, that he had wasted his entire life, and now it was over. The sun was shining outside.”
-David Szalay, All That Man Is
Different people have different experiences of something called trauma, pain, or existential crisis.
Are we going to believe that everything is okay when it is not okay?
It is better to say, It’s okay not to be okay.
It means we need to busy ourselves, try new things, and make ourselves feel like we are contributing something greater to make things better.
The night is getting darker, but the sun always shines when the day starts anew.
