It seems a lot of people are depressed, pseudo-depressed, alienated, irritated, and all doom-y and gloomy about their future (or lack thereof). Not that there's anything wrong with that. Experiencing a quarter-life crisis will probably take the edge off your mid-life crisis anyway.
Maybe we've been living in a bubble for too long. High school consisted of nothing but socializing at lunch, hanging out at the mall, and sometimes studying for tests. Lines were drawn so clearly you knew what you would be doing everyday and who you would be doing it with.
Life? Not so much. It's a big battlefield where people with flexible loyalties are hailed as socially capable rather than nailed as traitors. Even worse, you have no battle plan and you have no idea what to do and you hate yourself for it.
But the fact is, people will never be satisfied with what they have and they'll keep searching for things they can't find. Then you'll ask why bother with anything then, if you'll never get what you want? I don't know. It's kinda like what Angel said in his St. Crispin's Day speech in the second last episode. If you worked so hard to bring down the Senior Partners, and they finally do come down, even just for one moment, it'll be enough. I think that's the kind of moment we're all chasing after.
