真実の愛の証... (The Mark of True Love...)
- We humans have an immense appetite for complicated things, neuroscience, astrophysics and molecular biology of course, but also barely decipherable books, abstract works of art and avant-garde pieces of theatre without plot or character, all of which perhaps evoke the primordial puzzles of the universe and our own always ineffable existence within it. But our veneration for complexity can reach a most painful, time-consuming and futile zenith in one area in particular – relationships. It's here that we find otherwise discerning and hard-headed people exhibiting extreme patience, often lasting over a succession of tormented years, for what we can call complicated situations. The complexities may arise from some of the following dynamics. A beloved partner who wants to commit and surely will one day but not quite yet on account of this or that factor or not entirely because of certain psychological fears or not conclusively or at least not without certain important caveats. They may need space, freedom or what they call a chance to explore though quite what was still not wholly clear, though we have asked them on many occasions. Then a partner with whom there are a lot of misunderstandings, around whom words often lose their standard meanings, around whom we may have to spend hours untangling what was truly meant and around whom gestures or deeds that we previously thought uncontentious suddenly become the occasion for major surprising aggravations. Or a partner who in principle is there for us and in theory loves us very very much but in actuality – like last week and the week before that – is constantly remarkably busy, unable to respond to our texts, out with their compelling friends or concentrated on their always extremely demanding job. Or a partner with whom we sit up late at night on many occasions with a pad and paper to hand attempting to determine where the issues are coming from, what is at play and how things might be handled before, baffled and upset, we finally have to retreat to bed a little after 1am feeling fragile and tearful.
神経科学、宇宙物理学、分子生物学はもちろんのこと、かろうじて解読可能な書物、抽象的な芸術作品、筋書きも登場人物もない前衛的な演劇作品など、私たち人間は複雑なものに対して計り知れない欲求を持っている。しかし、複雑さへの崇拝は、特に人間関係というある分野において、最も苦痛を伴い、時間を要し、無益な頂点に達することがある。複雑と呼べるような状況に対して、しばしば苦悩に満ちた年月の連続となるような極端な忍耐を示すのは、そうでなくても目が肥えていて頭の固い人たちである。その複雑さは、以下のような力学から生じることが
- The complexities may arise from some of the following dynamics: a beloved partner who wants to commit and surely will one day but not quite yet—on account of this or that factor, or not entirely because of certain psychological fears, or not conclusively or at least not without certain important caveats—they may need space, freedom, or what they call a chance to explore though quite what was still not wholly clear though we have asked them on many, many occasions.
しかし、結局のところ、何が働いているのかを正確に知る必要はないのかもしれない。単純化の法則に従えば、私たちはただ複雑さを、私たちがここにいるべきではないことの表れとして読み取ることができるのかもしれない。疑問を美化するのは、そろそろやめたほうがいいかもしれない。
