Suffering in life because of unfulfilled desires

[Loser47]

Knowing how much life
has to offer and how many fascinating
things there are to learn and pleasurable things to
experience and breathtakingly beautiful
places to see and cultures and realities to
explore. And watching in despair as all your
life and potential and dreams slowly tick
away, because you have become a timeslave
and moneyslave and cannot free yourself to
ever pursue those things. Life in this world
feels like being a small child walking
through a huge shop full of wonders and
delights but being unable to touch or buy
anything because they are all out of reach.
They are there just to tantalise you. And
instead your legs grow tired and your
stomach hurts from the long march through
the aisles.

This entire post is what my subconscious is successfully repressing by giving me near-total anhedonia. Much love.

I suppose it was easier in old times, when you lived in a village and could not see or touch anything outside of it. Your village was the world. Now, you can see the whole huge world, but you still can't reach anything outside of your village. No longer content with just keeping you imprisoned, now the world also wants to taunt you.

True you could be like others are living same life like you, now when you know there's better way to live that just fucks you up.
