Karma whispered softly in my ear and said, "Every story you tell yourself about another person is a trick of perspective. We all have our ways of chasing love and happiness. Dehumanizing another does not more deeply humanize you. So treat people better than you have been treated. We fall in love with those who carry lessons for us. An open heart will always feel deeply to the core. Let love's crackling embers burn away all that is built up inside, until there is a peaceful emptiness within. Like a hollow instrument, each moment will be music that is played through you."
One of the best products of "Theatre of the Absurd", Krapp's Last Tape successfully mirrors the life of modern people. As the outcomes of ww2 highly affected the rise of this genre, the play mainly revolves around the idleness of human beings and how they failed in every aspects of life. I like how Samuel Beckett conveys the idea of being ordinary with the image of clown. In the play, Krapp is resembled to a clown who makes people laugh but laughs come back to him. While reading the play, we feel pity and empathy for Krapp and somehow he achieves to touch our souls. His indecisiveness, intellectual and personal failure in life are still vivid concerns of society.
“Trust me, love,” he said quietly. “If you try to fight your true nature, you will lose, and you will break in the struggle. Accept what you are, and it will be less painful.”

If it is integration you are after, seduction must never stop. Otherwise boredom will creep in. And the best way to keep the process going is often to inject intermittent drama. This can be painful opening old wounds, stirring up jealousy, withdrawing a little. (Do not confuse this behavior with nagging or carping criticism—this pain is strategic, designed to break up rigid patterns.) On the other hand it can also be pleasant: think about proving yourself all over again, paying attention to nice little details, creating new temptations. In fact you should mix the two aspects, for too much pain or pleasure will not prove seductive. You are not repeating the first seduction, for the target has already surrendered. You are simply supplying little jolts, little wake-up calls that show two things: you have not stopped trying, and they cannot take you for granted. The little jolt will stir up the old poison, stoke the embers, bring you temporarily back to the beginning, when your involvement had a most pleasant freshness and tension.
Remember: comfort and security are the death of seduction. A shared journey with a little bit of hardship will do more to create a deep bond than will expensive gifts and luxuries. The young are right to not care about comfort in matters of love, and when you return to that sentiment, a youthful spark will reignite.
