When killing yourselves doesn't help.

There has to be someone in our lives who no matter what time of the day it is, no matter what's happening around them, is always depressed. I normally try to avoid these poor souls, they should be left alone after all. What if depression suddenly becomes a fashion and every time you want to impress your girlfriend, you would have to slit your wrist or try jumping off your apartment? You know what the worst part is? In the dark, you have to go with the flow. It is light which gives you opportunities, darkness just improbabilities. When everyone around you starts to commit suicide, it is going to catch up with you. So when we say evil breeds evil, it is nature working itself towards chaos. And if you are trying to stop that from happening, you are going against nature. Entropy is the ultimate truth of this universe. No matter what, chaos will always increase. However disciplined you try to be, the inherent predictability of discipline would be your undoing. So when someone tells you there is no evil without good, they are probably trying to be sympathetic. Because it is evil which is fundamental to the fabric of reality and we just try to make it look the other way. When this world put a fear in our hearts, set us against chaos- they had already started building a foundation destined to betray.

Shush!

Rather distressing to note that not everyone on this planet suffers from civility. Inherently, everyone here would love to see a colorful painting but then black and white are colors too. Life can never be explained without analogies and it is here that we start comparing it with the most unrelated things. I take a painting most of the time because I like colors. Cutting out the bad parts of your life could be one approach to making it happy but then isn't happiness relative? Everyone keeps on saying that there is no good without evil, but no one says the opposite- There is no evil without good. So, why don't we start eradicating all good from this planet isn't that the way it is supposed to work? Unless there is a huge flaw in the analogy, I suppose it is okay to let all the serial killers, rapists, thieves and psychopaths do as they please. Maybe then there will be some kind of balance where morality would be justified by both the sides. And the next time someone sticks a fork into a guys eye because they refused to lend them money, the jury could stick a fork into anyone they pleased.
