Looking down the barrel...
Desperate, I will crawl | Waiting for so long No love, there is no love | Die for anyone What have I become The Diary of Jane, Breaking Benjamin
And it seems I’ve hit a brick wall. I give up on gaming and look what happens, I go through breakdowns left right and center. At times I’ve wished I was dead. Several times. I just wish this crazy rollercoaster of emotions would end. Sometimes I wish I was alone. No one to care about, nothing to care about, just me and the world, fighting it out in the duelling ring.
In the battle between you and the world, bet on the world.
What is the world in that context? Is he referring to the vast amount of people in this world, that have a simple opinion, moulded by what is deemed to be possible in modern society? Or is he referring to the literal world? The world that is so unforgiving and unpredictable. Mother Nature doesn’t forgive and forget like your god, or your best friend. Mother Nature stares at you down the barrel of the shotgun, and makes your death as slow and painful as possible.
Quitters never win, winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots.
We all have to ask what the world would be like without other people to interact with. I would have to stat build much faster. Learn to live on nothing, watch things get stolen. Sit in the middle of a hurricane, watch tornadoes rip through what used to be my home. The cruel hand of nature, ripping my prey to shreds as I stare at what was to be my next, maybe even last meal.
It hurts to admit when you make mistakes, but when they’re big enough, the pain only lasts a second.
There is no room for error. We are a race that can collapse at any moment. One moment capitalism will love us and society will rise to new levels. Then we’ll run out of gas, and crash to the bottom. Where there’s nothing to sell, nothing to buy, nothing to use. What happens when there is no longer anything to capitalise on? What is our plan once civilisation drives itself into the ground, once society’s values come hurtling down, crushing anything, and everything in its way. We’ll be like any other animal. Aimless, and vying to be top dog.

What have I learnt from this? I’m not going to live a happy life. I can’t expect to. I can’t expect to keep my sanity. What I can expect however, is for life to be ruthless. To stop me at every street corner asking me for help. What do I do? Do I stay at that street corner, and help the man change his tyre? Or do I move on, knowing those ten minutes could be put to better use? Do I potentially make another friend, another person to help me survive in the wild? Or do I count on society to keep me floating above the water?
Burnt down my world | You killed my hope Spread out the ash and walked away How could you just close off your eyes… Deanne the Arsonist, Atreyu
