That statement borders on cosmic woo-woo, but you make a good point about comparing your insides to other people's outsides.
Not everyone is as happy/perfect as they appear in their well-groomed public profile.
- Craiggybear 15y agoThe longer you live the less like "cosmic woo-woo" it gets. Believe me. It becomes a mundane certainty. And if you can't give people the benefit of the doubt when you are well, then when it comes time for you to bear whatever cross comes your way (as it certainly will) then you will have no tools at your disposal to deal with it. Be kind to people and don't prejudge. Grudge and jealousy are hideous, crippling afflictions (and its half of what's wrong with us as a species) and they don't help you in the time of your own need.
- sunir 15y agoWe all pay for the gift of life with death. All living beings suffer. Perhaps it is how you deal with that truth that limits you.
- xsmasher 15y agoNo one here gets out alive - that's a truth. Every good thing is balanced by some bad thing, or vice versa - that's mystical bollocks. I wasn't sure which side of the line the OP was coming down on.
