Dear friends, I hear you: “Damian, I’m into this whole #Pessimism thing, but you quoting some German secular and a Romanian aphorist ain’t doin it for me. I need something faithful! I need something Catholic!”

Well, is Kempis Catholic enough for you? A thread:
On the futility of the “lack, attainment, boredom” cycle:
On the inevitability of death:
On the illusion of “comfort” in the temporal world:
On the endurance of a life of suffering:
On the futility of the Will to Life and it’s renunciation for a higher one:
And finally, friends, let’s end with the words as explicitly as we can: “THOU MUST ALWAYS SUFFER.”
