Obviously there’s the dialectics where it can be the opposite. I need to view it as more of a loving world right now.

Well, first of all, every morning my cat comes and sits on my chest and she’s very very soft. And there have been a few times in my life where I’ve gotten to feel this transcendent, infinite love that is greater than anything else I’ve ever felt. So I feel inside for the love in my own heart, or I look at my cat, or I look at kind people still trying - and then I can imagine that thing I felt before, the big love under everything, is real and true and still there. I don’t really understand yet how it is possible, given the suffering, but I imagine it anyway.

The fact that even under extreme brainwashing, torture and slavery, the human desire to improve the world still persists.

That there are still communists, despite how insanely hard the US has tried to stamp it out, is a testament to that.

It proves to me that kindness and love really is a fundamental part of our nature, as cheesy as that sounds.

The world is WATER and ROCK. It CANNOT love. It CANNOT hate.

If you’re talking about the people, you’d better not make broad claims about every single human as if we were a blob.
