So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

This event is definitely a bit quirky, but I do think that the French have an interesting view of "depression". I mean, these are a people known for producing famous existentialists. For the uninitiated, this philosophy is predicated on the idea that life is completely meaningless. The world isn't fair, bad things can happen at any time to anyone, regardless of what kind of person he is. Life has meaning only insofar as each of us thinks it does. Albert Camus once said that "there is only one truly serious philosophical problem, and that is suicide". The stereotypical Frenchman should be sitting in a caf�, drinking wine, smoking a cigarette and saying, "Life is shit." Only he's French, so it will come out like "Life is sheet," or "La vie... c'est la merde." And I will finish this later because I must go to dinner. adieu. Recommended by 1 Member 5 Comments. It's funny, how Existentialism seems like such a depressing thing until you realize that it would be kind of just realistic in a world with no divine beings. I don't really label myself as an existentialist but I suppose my views somewhat align with the general idea of it. » randomjunk on 2013-02-04 01:34:05 sacre bleu! .. that's all i know in french and i dont know if its at all relevant to your entry but iunno anyway, there's a french girl in my classes named olga and she looks like an olga » undisputed on 2013-02-04 06:02:53 my friend in france is in depression. and she was told to take delights in small acts like sitting in a cafe and drinking coffee. wait. i thought french people do that all the time?! » renaye on 2013-02-04 07:11:34 People here in America certainly think they know a lot about a lot that they really don't actually know anything about. Such as depression. I get shocked reactions when I tell people I've been clinically diagnosed and had been seeking professional help. "But you don't seem depressed!?" Ugh. At least other countries are bringing awareness, even if it's in their own unique ways. » LostSoul13 on 2013-02-04 08:57:50 Hahaha! La vie c'est la merde, I should use that sometimes. I think people take many psychological matters either as a joke or a little too seriously. I flunked a job interview just by telling them that I have a mild case of dyslexia. I don't think anyone around me realised that I have been depressed for a while.. » Nuttz on 2013-02-05 05:24:44
