the pain is our pain.
the happiness is our happiness.

none of us own these things.
none of us can earn or deserve these things.

they just happen.

it's all just sitting there, and i find that the selfish ones are grabbing for all the happiness.
and the ones that always waited to serve themselves last are dealing with the pain at the deepest levels.

if everyone knew for a fact that there is limited happiness and limited pain in this,
who would share their joy?

i'd like to imagine that i would.
