No Longer Human is told in the form of notebooks left by Ōba Yōzō, a troubled man incapable of revealing his true self to others, and who, instead, maintains a facade of a hollow jester. The work is made up of three chapters, or "memoranda", which chronicle the life of Oba from his early childhood to his late twenties.

A book that made me sympathize with the character's hollowness and, after learning of the author’s life, understand the sentiment behind it. There is a reason why in Japan, and now the world, this book makes you feel understood. The raw emotions leave a tear in your eye, unable to escape. The emptiness, hollowness, the human experience of the troubled person, not wanting to present the reality but, by making a mask, protecting yourself from evil eyes. It is a great book for psychology analysis, considering what has happened to the main character.

With caution and understanding of the TW, to feel human, you should read No Longer Human.

xoxo,

After rain comes sunshine

I know not all times are bad times but, there's a period when everything is crumbling and falling apart and, I can't help but think about the negative parts of life. I, theoretically speaking, know that after rain comes sunshine which brings out rainbow, but that rain hits more like a tornado and leaves a mess, not worrying about it while I'm left all alone to deal with all that mess, trying to figure out how to clean it up.

Those negative parts eat me up, drain my energy away and I'm left as a bag of meat, lifeless creature, a corpse, walking through life as if I had a choice... I long for a break, for basic human needs I've neglected up until that point and, I crash.

I can't get up anymore, I walk without knowing what truly I should do, I am exhausted and confused.

After a while of not having any energy to do stuff, besides what I have to do and what is a must (example, going to school but barely doing any work outside of it) I notice I am slowly, but surely, getting energy back and I'm willing to do things again...

That's my exhaustion period, my slump. I have no energy and I need to rest as much as possible while I try not to ruin my grades.

Then, after some time (depends on exhaustion level) I find myself picking up the pieces left on the floor, glue gunning myself, keeping it stable, safe and sound...

Slowly, after rain comes sunshine.
