Put it this way: Why not commit suicide? Judging if life is worth living brings about questions on the relationship between thought and suicide. An act (or omission) is prepared silently in a man's heart. Camus called it a 'great work of art'. Suicide is confessing that life is too much for you, or that you do no understand it. (Allowing death is identical: take Galileo. Whether the sun revolves around the earth or vice versa is of profound indifference: it is to a pragmatist a futile questio...

I will make 5 points, with scant regard to their relationship. 1) Ruminations are often on life, since that is the only thing we can experience. That is, as opposed to experiencing others, to experiencing death, and to experiencing objects. 2) I use soul here as an equivalent to being and to person: the loneliness of the human soul is unendurable.

Journalism / We're Only Human
Interesting reflexions, and from your premise (Sex and the City) it seems you have done a reasonably good job of it! Bravo. I enjoyed reading it, twinged with angst, if I may say so: the content was adequately succinct. It tended to stray into the informal, with a rash of 'maybe's and 'perhaps'. If anything, they add to the dissonance of the piece, the questioning nature of the finale; but they also decrease the credibility of your sentiments, as if you are not too sure about them yourself.

Journal, Diary, & Blogging / Daffodils
It reads like a creative writing piece, and ablaze with images: very effective for titillating the mind! I enjoyed the premise of daffodils, and particularly at the end when the lack thereof slightly throws the mind at first instance. A nice touch, good movement, despite the fact that 'she' is never (adequately) revealed! Fantastic.
