@baddiepookiess: “Reality is too heavy for most people to carry, so they rent illusions and call it happiness“ is not a direct quote from Franz Kafka but it does encapsulate his ideas and philosophy perfectly. It is a modern interpretation of a lot of his written work. It highlights how we use sweet lies as a protective shield rather than the cold, hard truth because it is more comfortable to live in a lie. Kafka’s literature speaks to the crushing feeling of being unable to navigate a world that doesn’t make sense. Because the pressures, disappointments, and expectations of life are frequently overwhelming, people default to renting or borrowing illusions to cope with the absurdity of life. It is much easier to live in a comfortable lie, unaware of the reality of the world than to live in an uncomfortable, harsh and miserable reality. Most people use alcohol, drugs and other self destructive behaviours to cope with the cold reality, it is much easier to live in ignorance than truth because truth requires you to see things in a way that you may not agree with or want to accept. But the truth is the truth and should always be prioritised, no matter how cold and miserable it is, for that is the truth! #fyp #viral #aestheticvideos #reality #foryoupage❤️❤️ #newtrend #deepthought #trending #USA #UK #explorepage✨ #exploree #introvert #btsarmy #book #dark #deep #quotes #quotesaesthetic
