Do you know what everyone wants? Literally everyone?
They want to be happy.
Who they are, who they love, how they live. That's what makes folks truly happy.
If your political or religious tenets go against someone's core happiness, that's why you're getting resistance.
@badgerwerks Also true and I really have a hard time understanding that outlook. "I wouldn't find happiness in that so you won't be allowed to" is fundamentally incomprehensible to me
@DanAmrich Absolutely. When you are a person devoid of substance, you have to reach beyond yourself to impart your presence, because otherwise, you are a worthless shell of a human...and that kinda hurts to realize.
@DanAmrich unfortunately some people's happiness depends on go against others core happiness
@Razdawg22 This is true and it's the part I cannot reconcile.
@DanAmrich humans have an amazing capacity for evil......
@DanAmrich (preface: I totally agree)
"But MY happiness is dependent on YOU being miserable!"
