My last post was very controversial, and after receiving a lot of angry fan mail from my imaginary readers, I've decided to address it. Do I think life sucks? That's irrelevant. What I do think is that one's perception of life may skew to the notion of one's life sucking. Why? Nostalgia.
The way memory works, supposedly, is that events are remembered more fondly than they actually are. Coupled with the experience of aging, the glow of youth - it's a pretty potent effect.
So regardless of what actually happens, one might perceive an inevitable descent into nothingness.
