2021-05-17 "If I'm going to be abused sooner or later, it's better to abuse others now" [長年日記]

Today, I came to a nearby clinic to get some stabilizers, but I was fed up with the "long-talk old woman".

She was talking at the reception desk of the clinic about how she couldn't get an appointment to get the Corona vaccine.

I was listening to the conversation in the waiting room, and I almost lost my temper.

"Tell me the conclusion first!" I was almost to lecture the old woman.

-----

What I thought was great and admirable was the lady at the reception desk who kept listening to the old woman's conversation without interrupting.

From now on, I think we will need people who can handle this kind of "non-logical talk" well.

This is because we (myself included) are not very good at talking logically or describing things logically.

Logical talk and logical writing are such difficult skills that they should be the subject of training (for a price) on their own.

It is usually "violence" to force this on everyone.

I am well aware of this, but I also think that 'repeating four times what can be explained in 30 seconds and talking for more than five minutes' is also 'violence'.

-----

Well, in the not-too-distant future, I will be "that" too.

Logical or not, we have only two choices at the end of our lives: (1) die without dementia, or (2) die with dementia.

And now there is an "overwhelming" chance that it will be (2).

(Furthermore, there is a greater than 50% chance that we will die of cancer).

When I can't speak well and people around me are cursing me, "Speak your conclusion first!". I can imagine that this is absolutely painful for me.

But on the other hand...

"If I'm going to be abused sooner or later, it's better to abuse others now"

I also think about the despicable matter.
