Kafka believed that someone who cannot cope with life during their lifetime
They require two hands:
A hand that can take the despair away from their destiny a little and a hand that they can use to write quickly about what they see in the ruins around them.
For this reason, he believed that such a person is dead and alive at the same time in their life.
Based on this idea, Hannah Arendt believed that when we live in the age of darkness and evil and face a ruined life, we need these two hands:
A hand that keeps us alive and doesn't let us commit suicide, and a hand with which we can search among the ruins and find the few good things left and make them our hope. Living in ruins means being dead and alive at the same time. The situation of our society today is something like this.
