I argued with a friend a few days ago. She had discovered that I withheld some details on a matter, and came charging into my house to demand answers. The more I explained, however, the worse it got. Apparently I am intolerant, I have too many morals and I can't read subtext... and the honesty she asked for drove her out the door again. The funny thing is, I could have accepted that I was at fault if the core issue wasn't cannibalism. Is it... am I really intolerant for not wanting that in my life? Am I going insane here - because it feels like it. All the rules I ever understood seem to have been upended and I don't understand anything anymore.
I tried to look at nature, to see where I was getting it wrong... but it didn't help. It only seems to underline how I'm somehow in the wrong even though I don't how to be any different or see anything differently... how am I to look at cruel, horrible things and just carry on with my day without falling apart?
