im the hero of the story, i dont need to be saved.
the story is my life. once im dead, there is no more story. all the people around me are merely characters. because everything i see is from my point of view, that must make me the hero. therefore whatever i do will lead to the end of the story. the conclusion may be a peaceful death in an old age home.
or hanging yourself as a teenager.
either ending, is the end of the story, and is therefore intended.
people assume that the kid that overdosed is in the wrong and needed help. but that is from our stories point of view, his story ended with an overdose, he was the hero in it because it was from his point of view. therefore, the events prior to it were what the hero was meant to do, and as such he does not need to be saved. because this is the conclusion.
at the end of a third-person story it goes 'and paul died. and jane was terribly distraught'
at the conclusion of a first person story (our lives) it goes 'i died.'
there is nothing after, so who's to say it was the wrong thing.
i feel like im not explaining myself properly.
its generally along the lines of what other people said i guess.
the trouble comes in when you see the other people in your life as merely characters in your story, and therefore have no compassion for them after your story has ended.
yeah, definitely does not make a whole heap of sense to me, but this is what you get a 1.30am.
