Streets of Naples, Italy
The
hunger after doing something positive, opposite the negative, makes us strive
after being something else; in this struggle we feel, that we are alive, that
there is a purpose with our life, that we gradually can remove the causes of
the conflict and the sorrow. We feel, that if we no longer were active, we
would be nothing, be lost, our lives would be completely without meaning.
Therefore we continue, and that will say: we continue the divisions, the
conflicts, the confusions and the opposites. But in this process we at the same
time feel, that there is something more which we all the time lose, that there
exists something, which is quite different, something, which is above and
beyond all this distress and misery. This feeling is the existential guilt, the
guilt over the unlived life. In this way a permanent struggle is going on
inside us.
