They who clamor loudest for freedom are often the ones least likely to be happy in a free society. The frustrated, oppressed by their shortcomings, blame their failure on existing restraints. Actually, their innermost desire is for an end to the “free for all.” They want to eliminate free competition and the ruthless testing to which the individual is continually subjected in a free society.
Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman

LAWRENCE: I — killed — two people, I mean two Arabs. One was a boy — this was yesterday. … I led him into a quicksand. The other was a man — that was, oh let me see — before Akaba anyway — I had to execute him with my pistol. … There was something about it I didn’t like.
ALLENBY: Well, naturally.
LAWRENCE: No. Something else.
ALLENBY: I see. Well that’s all right. Let it be a warning.
LAWRENCE: No. Something else.
ALLENBY: What then?

A quotation from Bertrand Russell
I enjoy life; I might almost say that with every year that passes I enjoy it more. This is due partly to having discovered what were the things that I most desired, and having gradually acquired many of these things. Partly it is due to having successfully dismissed certain objects of desire — such as the acquisition of indubitable knowledge about something or other — as essentially unattainable. But very largely it is due to a diminishing preoccupation with myself. Like others who had a Puritan education, I had the habit of meditating on my sins, follies, and shortcomings. I seemed to myself — no doubt justly — a miserable specimen. Gradually I learned to be indifferent to myself and my deficiencies; I came to centre my attention increasingly upon external objects: the state of the world, various branches of knowledge, individuals for whom I felt affection.
Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 1 “What Makes People Unhappy?” (1930)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/russell-bertrand/755…

American Family Dysfunction
in Black & WhiteTwo of the most objectionable relatives any American could have:
Uncle Thomas and Auntie Bellum.
Their “union” — Black self-loathing and White lunacy — wouldn’t have set well with the Confederacy, but their politics would’ve warmed Jefferson Davis’ racist heart.

Today was a rough #depression day for me today. It’s likely to carry into the next few days or longer. It often does, and it makes trying to do the simplest things a struggle. It’s that time of year when this sort of thing always gets worse. :blobcatverysad:
Your mind can sometimes be your worst enemy.
