Did Thomas Hobbes say that fear was man's natural state? It's certainly mine. So I try to please and generally lose myself. When that doesn't work I resent as openly as I dare.
I'd give a lot to escape this ambivalence and alienation (There always seems to be something wrong and it always feels like it's my fault). I've just read "All Quiet On The Western Front" and was very affected by the tenderness expressed in it.
