Even the comments section seems to miss the point. The hole created by that persons absence is the love you felt for them. You are now entwined in the human story of romance. Without that heartbreak, you are nothing. Nothing but a blank canvas. So marinade in the triumph of having experienced love. That love is yours for as love as you live. No one can take it from you.

I completely get his point. But no no no. Forgetting them and moving on is the best part. Because then you find yourself and hopefully someone who actually loves you. Heartbreak is not beautiful. Moving on and finding something new is.

[@Lylelanley99]

"What I would give to have that feeling again." This is so amazingly true. There is always that one that broke you beyond belief. And it almost seems like that is what you chase the rest of your life.

[@singularmusing970]

Just like the first hit of crack. You’ll be chasing that high. In disbelief of going on thinking you’ll find that same hit. Experiencing things for the first time is basically introducing new feelings. Traveling to new frontiers. Routes are established. When you return to familiar routes, they become extended. The experience is what furthers them. Thus, those feelings you felt for the first time, will become distant as the route develops. Some things become boring. But I use psilocybin to reset shit so I can “feel” things for the first time again.

[@siinestesis636]

@@singularmusing970 I'm high as a kite on psilocybin right now and I couldn't agree more. In fact the reason why I'm watching this video is because I'm having a hard time explaining myself on why me and my family should care for what happens to us, not just normalize struggle as that's how life works, but actually care, listen and do something about that struggle, measure progress, because once you and your ones are happy you can start to care about the trip others are having. That sweet nugget of love that is caring about the people around you. And I remembered this episode just now, watched it like 8 years ago, is kinda crazy actually, even more in the state I'm in rn, lol. Anyway what I'm saying is that the "high" we all chase its the feeling of having something to care, that's why all routes take us back home, that sweet sweet sad love of having something you don't want to lose and still you know you'll eventually have to let go, that's the best part, hold on that part so when the bad part comes you're ready to pass the torch.

​@TOTOROID TZZ first was aristophanes, then was louie

[@lhays117]

This can be applied to the most horrible aspect of true chronic depression. A truly depressed person isn’t perpetually sad, they aren’t anything at all (emotionally). They’re just numb to it all. They just don’t give a shit about anything in reality beyond a slight whimper of emotion. Being chronically sad by comparison means you’re at least invested in something or someone. There is passion and vitality and desire there even if it’s extremely emotionally painful. Feeling nothing at all though is just the void where nothing worthwhile can ever be derived from and that’s why it’s the absolute worst.

[@Ekid33]

This carries a very deep truth for me, and I think many people move beyond the main point. Heartbreak and suffering is meaningful. These feelings are deep, powerful, and rare, and if I never felt them again, I would sorely miss the experience. Not because they imply an earlier period of joy/love, no: I think I would genuinely miss the raw experience itself. I totally get the idea of someone remembering a period of immense suffering or sadness, and upon reflection wishing that they could experience it once again. I, like most people, try very hard to distance myself from suffering, and I wonder if truthfully I'm only denying myself something valuable in the process.

Not sure if it was intentional, but Louis holding on to the bag of dog poo at the end was totally symbolic and great. The advice and lesson that Dr. Bigelow left him with was not something he wanted to hear, but it was something that's useful.

[@wubanizer]

@@astrolabeIQ the poop is a metaphor for his emotional pain. He doesn't want to hold onto it but he has to so he might as well enjoy it

[@DanielReyes-cd9qx]

@@astrolabeIQ One way to see it is that poop can be used as a fertilizer...a common practice. It helps nourish the crop or the plant. Like the bag of poop, Louis is left with something he doesn't want and what most people avoid (heartache), but he can use it to nurture a richer life moving forward.

[@rabajdajr3001]

@@wubanizer ehhhh it can also symbolize the loss he was leaft with or was told to take the loss because his partner abandoned him. Not everything you experience or are given in life is just or meant for you to experience. It's just like everything in life sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. It's the game of life. So play with skill and experience and know when to cut your loses. Almost nothing is promised except death and taxes if you chose to live in society. Don't always allow others behavior or choices effect your life , know when you've been wronged and fight for yourself. Nothing is fair in love and war.

I sound like an oldtimer but if anyone reading this has not seen it, please do- their chemistry is great and it make for a lot of laughs. I still like watching clips on youtube and it brings a enjoyable memory back home.

I think that’s what comedy actually does, it’s purpose is making light of the inevitable tragedies that come along with the human condition like delivery of a hard message so you may accept your humble ephemeral short bitter sweet sad existence but in such a way that is Palatable.

[@BradsGonnaPlay]

@@DeceasedChannel-r1i The theme in the South Park episode is that you can be grateful for being sad in a moment because you were happy about that which made you sad in the first place, so you can be happy again in the future. The distinction is how sadness is the illuminating factor for that. It’s a message about looking ahead optimistically with an broken heart. The theme in this scene is that the only way to know you had love is to lose love and remember what it was all about when you had it. It’s a message about looking back with a fonder, heavier heart than you had back then. They’re both fine messages, but South Park’s is about having the courage to move on from being a sad person and this one is about not letting sad memories and moments leave you because if they do, you’ll lose the happy memories.

True love is built to last forever. Anything less than that was never love in the first place. The part they don't tell you is that ONE person can feel this love and another does not. It doesn't mean happy endings are love. It also doesn't mean sad endings aren't. They both are.

Honestly this show cannot be given TOO much credit. It is art in its purest form. The episode in the rainstorm with his ex-wife, the scene where he's stargazing with pamela, the scene on the rooftop with Liz, the scenes with the neighbors when his sister thinks she's going into labor, the scene where he goes on a date after seeing a homeless man get decapitated by a car, the scenes with Doug Stanhope's character when he's saying his goodbyes before he kills himself, i mean this show is so deeply human that it actually hurts how it can so precisely hit you right where you live. This show tackles issues that are so important and yet so difficult to describe, which is exactly what art is, right? Art, to me, attempts to illustrate an essential part of life that was once abstract or hidden from us. What this show accomplishes in its finite runtime is absolutely incredible and cannot be applauded enough for.
