Tomorrow
I still can't say I've had a day of fun. In fact, on Friday, I had a day of unrequited misery. But for me, misery will never cause me to pull the plug. That is weakness. What is a little pain? Especially when others are there to share the misery.
Of course, when you are so busy, you don't bother to worry about how useless your life is. And for the last 10 days, I have been busy. Not lucrative busy, not overly productive busy, just task to task to task busy. With other people. No one who is vastly connected pulls the plug. Unless that entwinement is trumped by, say, a violation of principle so deep they feel they must make a statement (Vince Foster), that their purpose in life is gone because they can no longer produce (was that Hemingway?) or else they are making everyone hate them (Hunter S.)
No one who does not think about life will intentionally end theirs. Only the seers, the seekers, the limit-pushers pull the plug.
