Humanity truly is amazing. We're all fucked up. And we're all incredible. When I think of my life, and how rich it is, and then begin to try and understand how it could be that every other person I meet has a life that is just as rich; well I struggle to understand it.
Each person has a unique set of ideals and principles, a unique past and as a result a unique perception of the reality they are being faced with. Within this reality there are so many outside influences that we just don't have the capacity to control, even if we could control them.
Based on the above it doesn't surprise me that people are murdered, raped, abused or stolen from every day. At the same time it doesn't surprise me that people are also respected, loved, honoured and appreciated every day.
I believe that we all need each other far more than we care to admit, not only to support and love each other, but to give a different perspective on problems, to push each other, to bring us down to earth when we need it and sometimes to create an escape from the reality that's abusing our minds.
Our lives don't fit in with each other, we don't have a perfect balance where you have an experience to a specific degree and I have the exact opposite. But we have all got something in common, irrespective of what level it may be on. For some it's at the core of what we are, a primitive requirement. For others it's on a spiritual level, where we yearn for something more, and for others it's on a much more advanced level, possibly a taste in music, a sense of humor or even the same political outlook.
Irrespective of what level it may be on, we need each other. And it's not because of who you are, it's because of what you are.
Your life is more interesting than you think, I'm fairly sure of it.
