Vacuum Thinkers
It is in my opinion, that the idea of suffering is all about perception.
Before we are quick to judge who we may feel is suffering and who is not, let us remember that we are still looking at it through our own little key hole. The people that think they can measure another's suffering are nothing short of ignorant. Or maybe simply having a very limited ideal.
You try to live, but there is a constant sense of someone watching you.
Enough, already...
"If you believe in peace, act peacefully; if you believe in love, acting lovingly; if you believe every which way, then act every which way, that's perfectly valid- but don't go out trying to sell your beliefs to the system. You end up contradicting what you profess to believe in, and you set a bum example. If you want to change the world, change yourself."
