Kill Your Darlings (2013)

i feel like humans have always had the need to understand everything. to have an explanation for things, an excuse. to know why somebody did that, why something is like that, how something functions. i think some things are better not said. not explained. not known. we should stop fearing the unknown. we don't know the meaning of our existence or the universe, but why should we know? what would it change? it gives us something to think about. and maybe all of our lives don't have the same meaning. maybe we have to find our own meaning. i think it's healthy to think, to wonder.

My dear, I don’t know what to do today, help me decide. Should I cut myself open and pour my heart on these pages? Or should I sit here and do nothing, nobody’s asking anything of me after all. Should I jump off the cliff that has my heart beating so and develop my wings on the way down? Or should I step back from the edge, and let the others deal with this thing called courage. Should I stare back at the existential abyss that haunts me so and try desperately to grab from it a sense of self? Or should I keep walking half-asleep, only half-looking at it every now and then in times in which I can’t help doing anything but? Should I kill myself or have a cup of coffee? Falsely yours,
