i was wondering today.... science fiction often imagines supposedly 'peaceful' beings who don't feel greed, fear, hate or love like us humans do... but where do those feelings come from?
inside of each of our heads is an entire universe. it's fully enclosed and independent of others, yet our intelligence has discovered ways to transmit bits and pieces of information from one closed universe to another.
but the system isn't infallible, and we are all really still just entirely separate entities, viewing the world from our own unique angle. we don't see everything someone else sees, so anyone could potentially take advantage of and hurt us. so we are scared, fearful, hateful, and on the rare occasion that you find someone who seems to "fit" all your own eccentricities, loving....
fuck.
