We place such a premium on adhering to social norms that many of us who can never meet them hate ourselves for it. Those norms revolve around production of goods, services, the mirage of profitability. We try so hard to meet that standard even though the reality is that it is sometimes impossible.
The love of ruins requires the acknowledgement that this is not always possible, and that is okay. Pain, loss, and failure are part of life. If you're hurting, you're not the only one.
