We’ve all heard tales of true love and dreamed of being or waiting for our Prince Charming. 💘 These childhood fantasies may entertain, but retaining these ideas can create fucking wildly unrealistic expectations of relationships and others. 😟 Soren Kierkegaard, a nineteenth century Danish philosopher, was pissed off with these ideas and blamed them on the developing modern age. He saw the uniqueness of who we are being put under threat from a society tricking us into believing abstract bullshit and fairy tales. 🤬 Being distracted by falsities, we wonder why we can’t find any individual meaning, fail to live authentically, and fall into despair. 🆘
You couldn’t get a better fucking example of Kierkegaard’s fear of the individual being dissolved into the public than society’s move online. 🌐 Scrolling through images of thirst-trapping bodies or must-have looks, or reading about the ideal partner or perfect relationship, creates communal dreams fuelling unrealistic beliefs about our lives. 😵 We then limit ourselves and our freedom by denying the joy others may bring because they don’t meet some stupid social ideal. The fact of the matter is that there is no perfect anything and accepting this is crucial to living a meaningful life. 🤩
For Kierkegaard, life feels like standing on the edge of a cliff, a place full of possibilities, where we have the freedom to jump if we fucking want. 🫣 The dizziness or anxiety of this realisation represents the potential and opportunities before us, and we should not shy away and take refuge in the fiction and fantasy bullshit society sells us. 😶🌫️The uncertainty of life and the uniqueness of each of us means sometimes you should just take the chance - say yes to the admirer who doesn’t tick all the boxes, expect a rocky ride because no relationship is perfect (nor should be), but also feel safe to leave because there is someone else out there for you. Don’t be suckered in by abstractions and absolutes because at the end of the day they are just too fucking simple. 🚫 As Kierkegaard said, we are each so unique we completely defy definition. 😎
