there are also people who live in constant darkness and pain. it probably doesn't seem fair. and it isn't. that's because life isn't fair. reality isn't fair. that's not ideal, that's just Truth. everything that IS is built on everything else being the way they are.

one small change can cause a million other small changes, then a billion, then a trillion. scientists even did a study where a butterfly flapping its wings could be the deciding factor in whether a hurricane forms! the Everything is conspiring together to be the Everything

i suppose the only redeeming factor is that such people aren't bored if they're always suffering...you'd have to make boredom a kind of suffering to make that equal. but don't... to be bored is to be bored with yourself since YOU are always with you.

what you want to feel at all this injustice is not a sense of righteous fury but that of humility. of feeling blessed to be given a gift. after all...you don't know how your actions will end up truly affecting the world. how can you be so arrogant as to think yourself as good?

there have been many experiments in the world where people tried to do Really Big Good Stuff but actually caused Terrible Tragedies. it's always the smartest, bravest, and most hardworking and cunning ppl who try to do the Really Big Good Stuff.

it's just that b/c they're driven by so much suffering in the form of boredom or anger that they never do the right thing because they never allow themselves to feel blessed, loved, or humble before the Everything. the right thing always is rooted in feeling that Life is a Gift.

the Truth is...hoomans run this world. there's nothing that us 5 year old middle aged cats can do do affect things at the macro level. a simple thing like opposable thumbs allowed hoomans to tokenize their knowledge across time, leap frog genetic evolution for cultural evolution

build guns, missiles, nukes, power plants, computers, cars, planes, armies, flash mobs, social media, etc... one small thing affected one million other things and those affect billions and trillions of other things.
