"Everything that does not kill me makes me stronger!" - so Nietzsche said, then went crazy, and then died. Because these are beautiful words, but they are not true. Everything that does not kill us immediately, kills little by little, imperceptibly.
Kills our kindness and gullibility. Tenderness and sincerity. Openness, generosity, a clear look and a soft heart … Deception, betrayal, baseness, ingratitude, cruelty, injustice may not immediately kill. And drop by drop, drop by drop … We will endure, we will endure, the wound will heal. The scar will remain - rough skin. And so, gradually, you will grow over this skin, without noticing yourself - how did it happen?
And you can console yourself - I have become stronger! Yes. But in my soul another string broke, another crystal bell fell silent. Something or someone died there, in the soul - a good fairy or a little angel. That were our part. And you already know exactly how to respond to the blow. How - to a cruel word. How to fight back, if necessary. And you know for sure that they can hit - just like that, no way. Or instead of gratitude. And you are not at all surprised by this. I'm used to it. And he learned to endure or defend himself. But something is irretrievably lost with every blow, betrayal, disappointment. Forever it goes away and dies. And you get stronger, yeah. But at the expense of other important qualities.
Anything that doesn't kill me just doesn't kill right away. But makes it stronger or more insensitive? - who knows. We need less of what kills. And those who kill are also smaller. Because they are killers anyway. Murderers of other people's tender souls and good impulses …
Especially for those who want to understand themselves, a story about about meetings, partings and the important things that you don't always notice.
