Kevin stood at the door of the instructor's office, a moment of tranquility enveloping his thoughts. His heart surged like a raging river, as if an immense and indescribable emotion boiled within him. He tightly held his phone, quickly unlocking the screen and aiming the camera at the doorplate of the instructor's office, pressing the shutter.
A photo was captured, freezing the atmosphere of that moment. Kevin opened a social media app, browsed through his feed, and chose to upload the photo. He began tapping on the phone screen, a string of words forming in his mind. He wrote, "This classroom, this instructor's office, this school - they make me feel suffocated. The system, the rules, the authority - they bind me, but I will not yield. I need to find my own path, even if it's full of thorns."
Published.
Kevin's phone screen was immediately flooded with new notifications, messages, and likes. He glanced at it and saw someone praising his courage, someone questioning his views, and others feeling that he was too self-righteous. But whether it was praise or criticism, it made him feel a strange sense of satisfaction, as if he had successfully captured people's attention.
However, from another perspective, Kevin's behavior seems like a carefully crafted drama. He longs to be seen and understood, yet fears exposing himself completely. He uses rebellion and nonconformity as his protective shield, using it to mask the inner turmoil and confusion.
This contradictory nature leads him to express seemingly unique and profound views on social media, yet he rarely reflects on the true meaning behind these views. He may not even be able to clearly explain why he has these thoughts and behaviors. His pathological personality tendencies drive him to seek a unique position in this seemingly free but actually tightly regulated society.
His "marching to the beat of his own drum" seems more like a way of self-consolation, a way to prove to himself that he is not just a insignificant screw in the big machine of society. However, his pursuit of "being different" often turns out to be just a kind of self-pity, a kind of hypocrisy without substance.
Kevin naturally wouldn't notice, the seeds of tragedy are often sown by oneself. He often complains about the outside world, blaming everything that is not going well on the broken family, imperfect school, or unfair society. But he has never stopped to reflect on whether all of this might actually have something to do with himself? Such blindness and self-love are not only ironic, but also heartbreaking.
Certainly, the discord within the family and the deficiencies in school education are factors that cannot be ignored, and they have a direct impact on Kevin's psychology and behavior. However, this does not mean that he can attribute all the dissatisfaction to these factors and completely avoid taking responsibility for his actions and choices. He is deeply immersed in the rebellious and indifferent image he has created for himself, seeking a distorted self-identity, yet failing to realize that this is the root of his gradual decline.
Kevin seems to prefer playing in the false world he has created for himself, avoiding facing the real problems. He likes to think of himself as special and unique, but never dares to confront the fact that all of this is just an excuse he uses to escape reality. He is eager to make provocative and critical remarks on social media, yet never takes actual action to change anything.
This may be Kevin's greatest tragedy. His self-proclaimed challenges and criticisms are actually a disguise for his own helplessness and avoidance of responsibility. He stubbornly believes that only by challenging and resisting can he prove his worth, ignoring the fundamental truth that true value comes from within, not from external praise or disdain. He thinks he is pursuing freedom and his true self, but in reality, he is just using one excuse after another to trap himself in a situation with no way out.
In this way, Kevin's behavior is not only selfish, but also highly self-destructive. He may never understand that the seeds of tragedy he has sown will ultimately harm only himself. This is an extreme form of self-centeredness and self-abandonment, a path to destruction with no return. And the most painful part is that he brought it all upon himself, yet still pushes the blame onto others. In this manner, Kevin has trapped himself in an inescapable tragic cycle, undoubtedly the greatest sorrow of his life.
Of course, dear readers, we will find that Kevin's personality is full of various flaws. In a contradictory and black-and-white world, these flaws are like a mirror, reflecting the side of ourselves that we are unwilling to face. He cannot recognize his own narrowness, selfishness, and rebelliousness, and even sees them as a unique charm or a means to challenge tradition. How self-deceptive, yet how attention-grabbing.
If Kevin were perfect, the kind of flawless, by-the-book person, then this story would become extremely dull. We would ignore it, just like we ignore those unremarkable, unremarkable things in life. But Kevin's flaws, his uncertainty, his overestimation of self-worth, all make the story full of tension and conflict.
His self-righteous attitude and unreasonable disregard for rules and traditions inject a critical and ironic tone into the narrative. His flaws not only make him unlikeable but also often serve as unpredictable variables in the story, leading to unexpected outcomes. He gives the story a complex layer of love and hate.
His behavior also provides a stage for other characters, whether friendly or hostile, to showcase their values and attitudes towards life. He becomes a shattered mirror, forcing everyone to confront the side of themselves they'd rather not see. Kevin's imperfections give the story a sharp critical and ironic edge, prompting reflection and making the story more captivating.
So, as we continue to delve into this narrative filled with intertwining illusions and realities, let us not forget to thank Kevin for his imperfections. It is precisely these imperfections that give this story enough depth and light, allowing us to glimpse the complexity of ourselves and society. In this sense, Kevin's imperfections are exactly what this story needs, and the reason we continue to turn the pages.
