A few weeks ago a friend suggested that I try making decisions while taking into consideration the impact they'll have on my potential future family, esp. my potential future children. This touched something in me.
I got into personal development because a romantic relationship of mine crashed and it became clear something needed to change. I think it's really absurdly hard to have healthy relationships on purpose, and that learning how is one of the most important human tasks.
I work on myself in large part to become a better future husband, but my friend helped me realize I also do it to become a better future father. It's become clear to me over the last few months how much I've been fucked up by how my father treated me, and I will do better.
On a flight I listened to a little girl scream her throat raw for over an hour. She was suffering, and her parents could do nothing. They had deliberately chosen to trap themselves in a shaky metal tube in the sky, with strangers who also could do nothing but listen and suffer.
This world was not built for children, or for parents. It was not built to respond to screams. There is much work to do. For that little girl, and for everyone.
