alienation [Theme]



Feeling alienated creates anxiety; it is the source of all anxiety. To be alienated means to have no opportunity to use one's human powers. To be separate from everyone means to be helpless, unable to actively contact the world - objects and people; this means that the world can crush me, deprived of the ability to resist. Thus, alienation generates acute anxiety.

Some people are just like roses: they are always luxurious. Others are modest and inconspicuous, like a dandelion, which, when it is closed, you don’t want to look at, it can even cause alienation, but when its bright yellow inflorescences bloom, it captivates with its immediate charm. It looks friendly and is surprisingly hardy.

Now more than half of families are getting divorced. This suggests that the spouses do not want to bear the cross - sacrifice themselves, endure the cooling of feelings, serve, care, guard the already established marriage so that the heart of another person is warmed up, temporarily cooled to you or even betraying you, so that all the same keep the marriage. This requires true love. Forgive and not respond with coldness to coldness, and maybe even alienation to alienation and in no case consider marriage as a pair of gloves. This is a gift from God that must be kept.

For most people, knowledge of their own personality, as well as knowledge of other personalities, is too hasty, too quickly exhausted. For them, intimacy is established primarily through sexual contact. Since they perceive the alienation of another person primarily as physical alienation, physical unity is taken for overcoming alienation.

After a man and a woman began to become aware of themselves and each other, they realized their separateness and their difference due to their belonging to different genders. But as soon as they realized their separation, they became strangers to each other, because they had not yet learned to love each other (which is quite understandable, at least from the fact that Adam defended himself by accusing Eve, instead of trying to protect her). Realizing human separateness without reuniting in love is a source of shame and at the same time it is a source of guilt and anxiety. Thus, the deepest human need is the need to overcome his separation, to leave the prison of his loneliness.

The real horrors that we believe in, from the category of what Dostoevsky, Albee and MacDonald wrote about, are hatred, alienation, aging without love, entering an incomprehensible and hostile world with the uncertain gait of a young man. And in our everyday reality we often resemble a tragic-comedic mask, grinning from the outside and mournfully dropping the corners of the lips inside. Somewhere, of course, there is some central switching point, some transformer with wires that allows the two masks to be connected. And he is in the very place, in that corner of the soul, where horror stories fit so well.
