    people generally tell comforting myths and lies to themselves and collectively because the harsh reality of the situation is too terrifying to accept.

    people also generally believe that ‘one day i’ll be rich’. even though they are 45 and working at a cashier in a gas station.

    it’s also easier to tell yourself comforting BS because then you don’t have to take action and realize you are mostly a product of the choices you have made.
