Think the overprotective father wanting to shield his little girl from the world.

Your knowledge rises in proportion to how much optimism you sacrifice. The best people in the world are knowledgeable yet optimistic only via the infinite optimism of “perfect” faith.

They often are the best teachers As they alone can light other candles without dimming themselves. They are plastic led lights. They are fires.

See this fiery soul? You know that it is you yourself. See the workd as having the same soul, your soul. And if you can’t, well it means you still have more to go. Don’t turn your back.

You need to see how everyone sees themselves as the ‘chosen one’ (in an indra’s net way). Treating everyone, including yourself, like a chosen hero, is the deadlift for building your empathy muscle.

If you can’t emphathize with whatever group or individual hate, it means your empathy muscle is weak Like a wimpy skinny man.

High empathy people have the most difficult time emphathizing with low empathy people strangely enough.

Until even low empathy people can be loved they will not reach that final gate. Most of us cannot embrace these asymmetrical relationships. They feel toxic. One side only takes.
