My last message here. No more bikering about politics its a waste of time.
Most people are decent, most of the time. At least in my experience, and I have met a lot of people in my life.
There's nothing to remember about all this dumb mess except these 2 sentences.
Some folks dont agree with this, and this is not because of their politics. Leftists agree or disagree. Same for righties.
Ive lived many lives and I met folks from all walks of life. Thats why I dont have many doubts about this.
There's a reason behind this:
Everyone always thinks they’re doing the right thing (sometimes wrongly, of course).
Right?
I recently undersood that that was Jesus said before being crucified:
“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”
Amen!

What really matters is happiness, that's what we all desire. But instead of finding ways to happiness, we distract ourselves, either on Insta or on Lemmy.
All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.
(without smartphones of course - Baise Pascal)
And we'd better not fuck up too much, because decades can disappear just like that.
Since im guilty of this, i reread these two short texts ezch year.
Seneca - One the Shortness of Life
https://archive.org/stream/SenecaOnTheShortnessOfLife/Seneca+on+the+Shortness+of+Life_djvu.txt
Paul Graham - Life is Short
https://www.paulgraham.com/vb.html
Relentlessly prune bullshit, don't wait to do things that matter, and savor the time you have. That's what you do when life is short.
Take care.
Thx!
