I rejoined “society” and I started noticing something that hasn’t been here before.
I stopped constantly comparing people to each other. I don’t create mental hierarchies where someone is inferior or superior. I don’t evaluate them by asking “how good would being friends with them make me look?”.
I think I started seeing people as ends unto themselves. It is a strange feeling, as if I am a parent that doesn’t have a favorite child - they’re all just… valuable by themselves.
Somehow this feels very liberating. Weird, huh?

I feel like I'm gradually becoming what I imagined normalfags were like.

If there's one thing that lowkey sucks about relationships (and having a family in general) it's the fact that you have an obligation to act with some sense of self-preservation, and to not be so insane, retarded and antisocial publically. I mean, as long as you want a good relationship.

You will die. All the experience you got, all that you have built will go for naught, unless… You create the successors for it.
People have always made fun of those who want to leave a "legacy". It's always, a legacy of what? Hardly any property or assets to your name, which isn't even any lordly name or anything.
Well… If I'd die today without a legacy, it as if I have never existed at all. I am not famous, nor have I achieved anything of significance. My parents would've effectively spent all these resources on me for nothing. You've been surviving for nothing, and nothing of you will remain. This is a terrifying fate that awaits most of us faceless people… unless we leave a living and breathing successor, a new mirror of oneself.
Maybe that is why people keep having children even when the world seems hopeless. Not because they are blind to suffering, but because they are refusing to let the story end with them. Likewise, this is why being a part of a community is worth more than just practicality - you are a part of something greater, and you serve it, and it will supercede you.
Hell, I was just watching those zombie survival shows recently, and I felt as if there's not point in surviving unless you pass down all the fruits of your effort to someone.
I remember how I used to sometimes imagine what it'd be like if I died in a sudden, unexpected fashion. What would people who knew me feel? That was a time when I was very sad and needed something to make me feel significant. Like I was looking for potential proof of my existence. But really, that a memory is such a transient proof compared to succession… That's what I was kinda thinking there… I don't know. Thinking of death, thinking that I could die next year, tomorrow, just makes my head move all kinds of priorities around.
