It seems like we don't understand ourselves no matter what happens. Perhaps the Semitic people in concentration camps (a very dire situation) knew what they wanted. Yet, we live in a liberal paradise nowadays. Many things confuse us (or not, or at least a wallower like me). I wallow excessively, but don't understand why I wallow so much. Perhaps, wallowing is healthy for the soul and I do it to excess.

No but seriously, the field of psychology is in my opinion a mess. The only good that has come out of it is logotherapy and positive psychology. Yet, Freud is still an inspiration for some. I don't get that gist if you ask me. And herein is the problem. People go to psychologists and the only good they offer is life advice. They call psychologists paid friends. Now going off the deep end psychiatrists are scary people or drug pushers. They only offer medicine that nobody likes taking.

Hence, the point I'm trying to make is that people don't entirely know what they want. Husbands cheat on wives, the divorce rate is too scary for me to engage in a healthy relationship. Sex seems to be the only thing that other people want. Isn't that scary? To not know a person you are interacting with and their motivations?

It seems people want things from other people, like sex. Is that what life is really about? Getting laid and having fun? If you were to ask me, I view people as hedonists becuase that is gratifying.

Any thoughts?
