For many, the disappointments of life justify destructive behaviors towards oneself and others. Entitlement to what they feel they deserve, or what others have and they have not, leads to disappointment if reality doesn’t provide them with what they expect. And thus, they feel wronged.
In a way, life has betrayed us. From the day we were born, it has sold us false expectations of sunshine, served us utter lies on a golden platter, and then slaps us in the face with indifference after we see our dreams perish, one by one. Instead of the paradise we’ve built in our minds, we encounter wastelands of cold, harsh, life-as-it-is: of randomness, of meaninglessness, of absurdity.
So, this is it? Maybe. And it may get even worse, looking at the transient nature of life, showing us that decay, sickness, and death await us. But how can we deal with a life that only seems to give us lemons? How to go on when fate has killed our hopes and dreams, and all that’s left is hopelessness?
