Hey Berries,

I understand. I'm so confused about life. On the one hand, death is such a scary thing to actually contemplate. But on the other, life is so hard. If there's one thing I'm finding some bit of comfort in it's the existentialist philosophy, which is kind of ironic. Irvin Yalom is a modern day existentialist and psychiatrist as well as a great writer. I'm reading Staring into the Sun: Overcoming Death Anxiety. It's so healing. It makes you realize that life is all we have and it's unhelpful to create this mass of anxiety and depression throughout. It's great, I'm not saying I'm magically "cured" or anything, but it is worth reading and connecting with others.

Stay Grounded.
Thanks for this!
