Meme version of all your favorite princess stories. LOL.

This Elegy is about the feeling that we have no control over life and all the misery it thrusts our way. It's not simply about hating life but the bitterness one feels at life hating us. Its about the various injustices of the world and how dysfunctional society has become. Here the author expresses suicidal thoughts regularly and firmly believes there is no reason for them to go on. Yet towards the end, they reach the conclusion that if they cannot live for themselves, then they will live for their loved ones and the meager chance of happiness to come. This carries a really important message as there will always be a reason to live, even if it's something indescribably small like living to spend time with your pets, or living for the taste of a certain food--all things you cannot experience if you die. the meaning of life is to find your own meaning. Ultimately, this Elegy is about shouldering through life--no matter your hurdles, appreciating life for the rollercoaster that it is, and finding value and happiness despite it all.
