Even now you are vindictive. You want to prove that life is worthless, but you are not convinced yourself, so you have to pose the question to others in order to see them squirm and struggle. Cruel heart! You cannot end your life quietly, discretely. Instead you need to see hands reach out for you, offering their feeble and uncertain aid, just so that you can take another step back toward the abyss, smiling, delighting in the rejection of their groping in the dark. What is it that you need to see before you die? Is it that you need to believe that those hands are not reaching for you, and could never know you, in order to convince yourself that you are truly alone, that every man is blind but you, that every man believes in the false hope of real embrace but you? Are you convinced that to sever yourself from the world is the only real, sincere act a man is capable of? The only truth? Nay, yours is simple self-pity--a weak, envious pity. That is why you cannot kill yourself. You could not self-annihilate knowing that your motive was simple stubbornness and egotism--for that is boring, common--and who could suffer a boring death? Who could commit suicide knowing that even by self-slaughter they were not differentiating themselves? After all, suicide is the fruit of boredom, and that is why it is in itself banal, underwhelming, and unimpressive. Suicide needs to feel like it is attacking the heart of the world, dealing it a solid blow, making a real impression--but in the end it is feeble, immature, and cowardly. Yet it must believe that it is doing something courageous, that it dares to go where others are afraid to pass. But how could it equal itself with death if it never approaches it sincerely?--for it is always looking back, comparing itself to others until the last. And death does not meet those kindly who engage in such petty and self-serving war with friends. It will reveal unto the foolish the artless jealousy of its vacuous heart.

i know that you are also looking for something to differentiate yourself from the masses, simply by writing this post. Do you expect people to reply, complimenting your intelligence? Would that satisfy your craving? There is an alterior motive behind every post on the internet. Idealized sincerity does not exist. It is an abstract concept, like infinity. The reason we are unhappy is because we live a life of projected idealism. We project the concepts in our mind onto the world around us, whereas the naturalists, pragmitists, scientists etc. observe the world as it is, and form concepts based on those observations.

We should try to shift our mental processes from internal->outward projection to external observation->internal acceptance and consolidation

You accuse me of insincerity. But do you deny sincerity as a possibility? Are you convinced that there is duplicity behind every post? Should we resign ourselves to duplicity, then, since idealism is foolish, as you believe? Our by forfeiting the ideal are we destroying also the possibility of duplicity? But then, sincerity would become a reality--which you deny as a possibility. You are foolish, furthermore, to think that we can somehow avoid projecting our concepts onto reality; reality is formed according to our concepts, and even the world the scientist sets out "sincerely" observe is such a one as is structured by our thought. The ardent pragmatist, the steadfast realist will meet, at the bottom of his precious reality, his own transcendental principles.
