See some curious thoughts of the great Djoko Rosic:

But that's how it is with man. He never grows up. He only grows old. And all your life you chase your childhood desires, your childhood complexes, your childhood loves … Tomorrow - new and unexperienced, it brings you the next pleasure. Good things will happen sooner or later. The history of humanity does not know endless crises. There is decline, there is stagnation, and then there is rise. These are objective laws. What is the point of a man doing anything in his life if he does not have a woman by his side to tell him: Bravo, you are awesome! When a woman stops visiting your thoughts, then you have healed. There are losses that cannot be healed. It is not true that the soul is immortal. Everything dies, only what is done, what is built remains. The rest - when you stop thinking about it and experiencing it - it is dead. But sadness is the most beautiful, the most constructive quality of the soul. If a person is alone in the world, there is no way to be happy, there is nothing to be happy about. A person must build his life so that people do not hate him. So that they do not say “this is nobody“. There is no greater happiness than being surrounded by people who love and respect you.
