No…this is what’s unrealistic. It’s unrealistic for a person with a fine mind to go on working year after year at a job they can’t stand. Coming home to a place they can’t stand, to a spouse who’s equally unable to stand the same things. And you know what the worst part of it is? Our whole existence here is based on this great premise that we’re special. They we’re superior to the whole thing. But we’re not. We’re just like everyone else! We bought into the same, ridiculous delusion. That we have to resign from life and settle down. And we’ve been punishing each other for it.
