Unfortunately, short of an evident "so what?", the trouble with emotional philosophy is the want of a "so" or a "what?" to follow, nothing to make of it except to forbear, forgo, fawn or fondle.
Or was there a more particular point or purpose to begin the thread?
I fear that until today the topic had rather not been replied to because of a cloying sense of incompleteness, the seeing of but one of too many episodes of an interminable drama.... |
I'm not aware of this emotional philosophy described above. It's more referring to helping someone in need and I'm finding that in giving of oneself, a person can find themselves. Maybe it touches someone in a special way and possibly "pays it forward" the next time they come across someone in need.
We're all in the same boat. All of us are a part of this one universe and we can either kill each other or work together to make the world a better place. If we all treated each other with dignity and respect, we wouldn't be fighting with each other. We are in a boat that's sinking as every day passes. If we all don't start bailing water, it's going to sink and the only reason it will sink is because we are not working together.
So, when we start giving more of ourselves to each other, then we will start to see the rewards in giving. Mankind's self destruction will not slow down until we realize that there is no separation other than that which mankind makes.
