Flawed human being
March 31, 2008
Why are we so hard on ourselves and each other? My biggest feeling of failure is when a relationship ends, despite the new ones that have begun. There’s so much time spent in getting to know someone and investing emotion, but it can be quickly disposed of. Should I feel like the failure or should I be mad at the other person for their lack of regard for how much time we’ve invested in each other? We’re all just a bunch of organisms bumping into each other, sizing each other up and comparing our lives to each other’s. There will never be a day when we can all reconcile our flaws with intention and preserve any kind of relationship with one another simply to honor the amount of time we spent in the little, finite window of life getting to know one another.
