Seo am film a thig gu m’ inntinn nuair a chluinneas mi bruidhinn air “riaghladh,” “goireasan daonna” no, nas miosa, “cultar corporra.”
Tha pàirt de dh’òigridh an latha an-diugh a’ caismeachd air na sràidean air an dreuchd a tha glèidhte dhaibh anns an t-siostam àbhaisteach a tha a’ feitheamh riutha a thuigsinn: a bhith nan goireas, nan cuibhle ann an inneal mòr nach tuig iad adhbhar agus nach eil iad a’ faicinn carson a bu chòir dhaibh aontachadh an cuid beatha a chaitheamh air.
Is e seo seann cheist an aonaranachd ann am Marx: càite a bheil an duine a’ sguir de bhith na chuspair na obrach aige agus a’ fàs na inneal aig siostam a tha nas motha na e?
Ach tha an òigridh seo a’ dìochuimhneachadh rudeigin cuideachd: dh’fhaodadh an saoghal a bhith neo-chiallach, mì-chothromach agus brùideil, ach tha e cuideachd, ann an iomadh dòigh, nas lugha de dh’uabhas na bha e uaireigin.
Agus cha robh beatha a-riamh na ghealladh air sonas no fois.
Seo far a bheil pàirt de ar fàilligeadh foghlaim: tha sinn mean air mhean air sguir de bhith a’ teagasg do dhaoine òga aghaidh a chur air iom-fhillteachd an t-saoghail agus an àite sin air mìneachadh dhaibh gum bu chòir dhaibh a bhith comasach air an dìon bhuaithe.
Bleithid a’ chuibhle shòisealta mhòr mòran dhiubh, tha sin follaiseach.
Ach leigidh i le cuid eile slighean ris nach robh dùil a lorg, gnìomhan anns am faigh iad toileachas, aithne agus gu h-àraidh an sàsachadh pearsanta sin a bheir ciall do bheatha.
Bha Camus air a’ cheist a thogail: mura h-eil an saoghal a’ tabhann ciall ro-òrdaichte, tha e an urra rinn an ciall sin a thogail a dh’aindeoin neo-chiallachd ar suidheachaidh.
Is ann le bhith a’ suathadh ris an t-saoghal, agus chan ann le bhith an-còmhnaidh a’ feuchainn ri thu fhèin a dhìon bhuaithe, a thig thu uaireannan gu adhbhar airson a ghiùlan.
Ach feumaidh tu a bhith air coinneachadh ri inbhich a thuig seo, a chaidh tro na fàilligidhean aca fhèin agus a ghabh ri gu leòr cunnairt gus slighe a shealltainn, eadhon slighe mì-chinnteach.
Sin an eadar-dhealachadh gu lèir eadar foghlam agus dìon a-mhàin.
Oir ann an saoghal an Iar a tha a’ tuiteam fo fhòirneart a ghràin fhèin air cunnart, far a bheil mì-chinnt a’ fàs na h-ainbheachd, fàilligeadh na mhì-chothromas agus gach duilgheadas na dhuilgheadas a dh’fheumas barrachd riaghlaidh, ciamar as urrainn dhuinn fhathast blas air beatha nach biodh gu tur prògramaichte a thoirt seachad?
Bhruidhinn Nietzsche air “a bhith a’ fàs na tha thu.”
Ach tha sin a’ gabhail ris gu dìreach gun a bhith eòlach, aig a’ chiad dol a-mach, air na tha thu a’ dol a dh’fhàs.
Tha e a’ gabhail ris mearachdan a dhèanamh, call, tòiseachadh às ùr, faighinn a-mach gu robh na cinntichean againn uaireannan gòrach.
Tha e a’ gabhail ris cunnart a’ bhith beò a ghabhail.
Agus ’s dòcha gur e sin paradocs ar linn: tha sinn ag ràdh gu bheil sinn ag ullachadh dhaoine òga airson an ama ri teachd fhad ’s a tha sinn a’ togail comann a tha a’ faicinn mì-chinnt—ged a tha i na pàirt de gach àm ri teachd—mar rudeigin do-fhulangach.
Tha sinn ag iarraidh orra an àite a lorg anns an t-saoghal, ach chan eil sinn a’ sealltainn dhaibh tuilleadh ach àiteachan a tha mar-thà air an tarraing.
Agus nuair a dh’àithneas iad an saoghal seo, tha iongnadh oirnn.
Chan eil duine a’ toirt seachad misneachd airson a bhith beò le bhith a’ teagasg eagal a bhith a’ call a h-uile càil.
