It is perhaps the greatest weakness of human nature to indulge in giving oneself a reason to indulge and deceive oneself with it. Well, I read a book for an hour today, let's go play. Well, I'm tired from work today, let's go to a bar at night. This is my limit, so be it.
You see, that's how we find all sorts of reasons for ourselves and believe it.
Mom's reasoning was that I was trying to lose weight, and I managed to lose weight, so I had to take medicine.
Harry's reasoning was that I made money, I bought a new TV for my mom, and I stopped stealing from my mom, so I was eligible for drugs.
Ty's reasoning is that I'm getting ahead as I promised my mom, and drugs have brought me wealth, so I'm going to take drugs.
What about Marianne? In order to get rid of the influence of her parents and live independently, she completely relied on Harry, which was also the direct reason why they had a fierce quarrel and let her finally abandon her self-esteem.
It seems that everyone has their own reasons, but from the perspective of bystanders, everyone's reasons are so stupid.
People must learn to force themselves to live, to force themselves to get rid of laziness, to get rid of pleasure, and to get rid of being content with the status quo. Only by pushing yourself to the point of inescapability can you pull your soul out of the sofa, and let it float according to your own thoughts.
In my humble opinion, I only remember myself.
