11:55 - : the call of the void
L’appel du vide: You’re waiting for the train when an inexplicable thought flashes into your mind: What if you jumped off the platform? Or perhaps you’re driving up some precarious mountain pass, when you feel strangely moved to jerk your steering wheel to the right and sail clear off the road. American psychologists in 2012 published a paper in which this feeling was dubbed the “high place phenomenon” (and their study suggested, by the way, that its presence does not necessarily signal suicidal ideation), but the French term for the phenomenon is much more alluring, as French words so often are: l’appel du vide, or “the call of the void.” As the philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre once observed, the emotion is so unsettling because of the way it “creates an unnerving, shaky sensation of not being able to trust one’s own instincts.” It’s a reminder, then, to perhaps not always let your emotions rule your behavior.

Jā, šis ir iemesls (viens no) kāpēc man nav tiesību un negribu. Gandrīz sakasījāmies ar brūtgānu - nesen bijām roadtripā un tā bija pirmā kārtīgā kaut kur kopā braukšana, kad viņš stūrē. Man skatoties kā pa bāni braucot spidometrs uzkāpj līdz 125 - neomulīgi, viņš prasa, vai tāpēc, ka man liekās, ka viņš sūdīgi brauc, un es viņam atkal, nu bet Tev tiešām tā nekad nav bijis, nu ka, liekās: a ja nu es tagad.. Un viņš man pretī, nu ja Tev liekās ka es sūdīgi braucu, tad tā arī saki! 😂

Karoče nav viņam tā bijis.

:D vīrieši!

vot, man arī riebj pie stūres sēdēt, kaut ar citu iemeslu dēļ.
un mans brūtgāns, savukārt, nepakautrējas pateikt, ja es pie stūres kaut ko ne tā izdaru, un man tas nemaz nepatīk, jo man jau tā nepatīk braukt un es nepretendēju uz 1. vietu. tā ka tā, ja. mašīnas vispār, phē.
