Buying time for what? What can we make the Dems deliver on that will take us out of this state where we're constantly having to vote to avoid fascism and nothing else?
Do you think happiness is reached and then let go? You have to clench it and never let go.
Sadly life is not so simple, we like freedoms and so we must uphold them. They are a structure of ideas that you have to maintain. If you cannot even maintain the now, how can you make progress, how can you heal?
You buy time for the hope you can savor life once more.
Stop using the lives of the innocent to refuse your own responsibilities.
They more than anyone would understand how precious those extra couple hours can be. How bountiful, and that you may find salvation long enough to afford another day.
We all suffer our birth, but we cannot induce more suffering by dejecting ourselves from opportunity. We must embrace, for how vast the internet is and how little it has made the world, we block off more and more from our lives. Denouncing our part in making good and effective influence, by removing ourselves from the scenario altogether.
Stop projecting.
Yeah, because you're denying them to them.
Maybe take your own advice
You brought them up, and call it projection. The lies you delude yourself with.
I have caused harm to the Gazans? I am saying they more than anyone can understand the difference 2 hours can make in a life. You haven't witnessed unrelenting death and cowarded from bullets and it shows.
I do good daily, talking to you seems the only bad I have done. A waste of words amuck the deaf and angry - unconstructive.
Supporting it how?
I literally am a person on the internet saying appreciate what you do have and make the most of it.
I cannot vote and the only palestinian I have met became my brother, moreso when he met my mother. Then again, your signal grows weak as your virtue wanes. You talk of things unrelated to you in hope you will feel special and good.
I wish I had your fortunate life, you see others so little you communicate in gestures. You cannot fathom words as beautiful and sweet as mine, so you must mock.
Narcissistic no, I am much too pathetic. I am no one and that is okay, however my name makes me deluded I can ask people to be kinder to each other, more forgiving, and more appreciative of what they do have. It makes me have hope it will be.
You have now, you have family, you have love - let it blossom. Make your mark on this world but never do it while profiting from the downfall of your neighbor. You are someone beyond the pain you feel, beyond the suffering you induced, beyond the agony you see.
