Walton: * patiently listens to Frankenstein's account of his supposed monster *
Frankenstein: * eagerly expects a response *
Walton: ...
Ye dumb?
Frankenstein: ...what?
Walton: You could have just presented him with a dog or a cat or any kind of pet of his choosing and avoided all that!
Frankenstein: ...oh ye.
That fits. They fit. THEY FITđ

I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned âforeverâ into the only acceptable definition of success.
Like⌠if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, itâs a âfailedâ business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you donât actually want to keep doing that, youâre a âfailedâ writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, itâs a âfailedâ marriage.
The only acceptable âwin conditionâ is âyou keep doing that thing foreverâ. A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a ârealâ friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a âphaseâ - or, alternatively, a âpityâ that you donât do that thing any more. A fandom is âdyingâ because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things.
I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And itâs okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success⌠I donât think thatâs doing us any good at all.
but doesnât it sound so peaceful to let the grass grow around your body while you sit and breathe? what iâd give for fresh air and a chance to lay down iâd rather the bugs and the dirt take my life than any human being
