The world is trying to sell you things you don't need. You are more beautiful, more complete without them. It might be a bargain, less expensive than it could have been. It will cost you almost nothing to ruin yourself. How can you let this opportunity pass you by? It's two for the price of one. It's 60% off. For a limited time only. So there is hope.
There is only one reason to have children on purpose: Because you want to be swallowed up and consumed and superseded by them, because you want to love them so much that you are willing to disappear behind them. They will not become your Mini-Me, you will become your own Mini-Me. They are not going to complete you, though they will eventually finish you off. They are not interested in whatever precious ideas you have about their lives. Once they are born they burn only to live, to be whatever they want to be. They're not looking for suggestions. Just cook something and shut the hell up. One day they may appreciate everything you've done for them, they may love you in return, but they are never going to surrender their lives to you so you can live through them. The life you have, your life, is the only one you get. Their life belongs to them and you cannot have it. If this sounds wonderful to you, go ahead and have a kid or two. You'll love it.
Never believe anything you read. Nothing. Ever. Not even this. It's all a lie. Open up your eyes and look around if you want to know the truth. (I don't necessarily recommend it.)
Hello, friends. I don't know. Don't listen to me.
Later. Love.
