analysis of the famous syndrome - thanks to Dino for the idea
It's not a crisis, it's just a character development.
Suddenly one morning you wake up to find
to your amazement that your life was all futility,
and you see through everything with clearness for the first time
and recognize the vanity of human wishes, toil and bother.
"What have I been doing all my life?" you ask yourself astonished,
and you realize you haven't lived at all.
All of a sudden, sex becomes dispensable,
you see through all your partners of the past that you don't need them,
love transcends into a higher plane of soul-mates,
endless friendship suddenly becomes the only acceptable relationship,
and you don't even need your property and money,
suddenly detachment from all worldly matters becomes vital
and much more important than materialistic fussiness and all the world,
and love takes on a religious aspect, you turn a philosopher,
stuck with your head in heaven and enjoying it,
at last discovering the real reality among the clouds.
You wake up from a nightmare of ridiculous concerns like from an illness
to turn into something natural and human for a change.
Congratulations – you just made it getting normal
and converted from this mundane mess of mainstream brainwash.
