    I know. It’s hard, but doable. It took me a lot of shit to get there, but it is possible. And it’s a constant fight. It beat me down bad, but not nearly as bad as others. Same for all of us. The answers escape me tbh. I don’t know if there really is a cure for suffering. I’m starting to think it’s just our biology, and this is just how it is. But I’m trying, and I guess that is what life is. (:

      I think the only part biology plays is how fragile we are and that we aren’t built to generate profit (certainly not infinite growth for someone else).

      The rest is just how many barriers there are, and the greed of the few that has been shaping things before our days (relatively recently for humanity, though). In many cases it’s not even an explicitly devious thing, but just something somebody thought was a good(/profitable) idea 40+ years ago that is now deeply entrenched in how people think.
