This is a repost, I thought I would repost this here.
The worst kinds of unhappiness, as well as the greatest amount of it, comes from our conduct to each other. If our conduct, therefore, were under the control of kindness, it would be nearly the opposite of what it is, and so the state of the world would be almost reversed. We are for the most part unhappy, because the world is an unkind world. But the world is only unkind for the lack of kindness in us units who compose it. --- FREDERICK WM. FABER ----
How true is that statement, I feel that is what is going on in the world. Then you got to ask yourself, were does all this unkindness come from? were did it all stem from? and how has it populated the whole world? The lack of kindness all stemmed from us. and how we see the world today. Sure we can say oh the world don't care no more, and it it is unkind. But are we asking the right questions? are we covering up the true question that needs to be asked? Does all this unkindness come from you / me?
We constant telling people the the world is unkind. But not consciously thinking about that question. The world is not at fault, it is not unkind, if anything the world has given us more than what we can handle, its the people on the world who mis-treat it, from our own conducts.
So does change come from the world? or does it come from us who live in the world?
