requiem

sometimes things don't work out how we've planned. sometimes we don't know why things happen as they do. sometimes the abject lack of control we have over events, over our own existence, can be horribly frustrating and terrifying. viewed from our individual perspectives, the world isn't fair, not one bit, as it sets out to attack us systematically and for that you have my deepest sympathies. if i could change the system, i would and i hope you're doing OK.

none of this is new or revelatory, but it was on my mind. i shouldn't have watched ER last night.

Beautifully stated. Not sure if you're referring to someone in particular, but if you are I will also send them my best. That episode really threw me for a loop.
