I wish people were allowed to express extreme thoughts of pain without always hearing the prefix that anything of such nature will be reported. Because I actually think its quite common to feel this way. I also wish I could allow myself to experience the pain that my mind keeps thinking about, that I wasn't squeamish and recognized it as a poor decision. I wish there was a way to let someone know how you hurt without making them hurt as a result of it. I wish expressing emotions didnt feel like attacking or abusing.
Today in Philosophy we talked about Freud and the battle between Eros and Death. Mourning was brought up, how agression takes the placeholder for a love one lost. How this aggressiveness is channeled as blame towards oneself or another, towards the catharsis of tears.
One of the more mentally engaging five minute discussions of the year.
