thanatos : Jun 7, 2011

Thanatos is the desire for death.
Is there such a desire?
Yea. The urge to go back to the state of absolute invariance.
Unchanging state…
Eternal silence.
To want death without any reason?
It is hard for us to understand, since we are mostly driven by Eros. That’s why we say things like, “Suicide is not good,” or, “Those left behind will be sad.” That’s all we can come up with. Maybe we have a different kind of sensitivity. They, on the other hand, cannot understand why people have a desire to live.
