Look at People in Their Lonesome & Treat Them Off Their Desire

Nature forces us to look out for ourselves before others. This is basic survival. If you're not safe, you can't help anyone else become so either. But the weight of our survival sense has thinned, and the process of living has become almost effortless.

At this point in civilization, our freedom and ease of life has granted humanity access to explore the more complicated and specific facets of emotion. And with this comes a lot of mystery and pain. Only gaining solution through process of elimination. Meaning opening up to someone today, gives them the power to stab you in the back tomorrow.

Yes, this is a negative outlook on our people as a whole. But sadly, more times than not, this is how we act towards each other. We look for powerful information; heavy emotion; guarded goods to feel important, but also, to be feared.

This is where I encourage each person to picture an individual you may not like or get along with. Picture them alone. Alone on a car ride home. Alone in their living room. Alone in thought. Put yourself into their emotion. How does this person feel on their worst day; stuck in their head? No one around to vent to, and even if there was they don't say anything. Every person you walk by has a life of hardship and pain. But we don't know that. Even those we think we know, we don't. They have lived so much of their life outside of you.

Then think of your problem with that individual. And ask yourself: what was their desire? Did they try to hurt you? More times than not, I don't think they wanted to. And even if they did, someone did the same shit to them. So maybe try to break the cycle.

People are trying to grow and be better, let them do so. Let them learn, let them communicate, and let them be happy. And in return, the next person that has a problem with you will give you the same benefit. Hopefully.
