>>3027496It's like living in a cave your whole life. You're told stories and shown shadows so that all you know. You believe what ever is told to you because you have nothing else to go on so your world view is like a puzzle made from several different puzzles. It's alright to feel frustrated no one blames you. I know because I was like you. I lived away from trying to find things on my own. I was angry at others that told me something that broke what I thought was the complete picture and even became resentful. Lashing out when a new idea was brought up. Until one day posting a sad cat face I thought "rightfully there shouldn't be a sad cat. Cats are loved by everyone (except people with allergies but they don't count). They want for nothing and nothing is expected of them. How could there ever be a thought of shopping sad eyes onto a cat let alone there are so many?" This thought led me to research the history of cats and their interactions with people. That's when it hit me. Happiness. It was a new kind of happy. Not from the thought of bringing others down, taking mind altering substances, this was different. This was from getting knowledge based in fact. My life had been spent taking what was told to me at face value (no pun intended). I started researching on anything I could think of. Every question a beautiful spark that lit a fire of discovery and new understanding. This is why I want you to do the same. Don't wait for someone to explain to you what op meant. Venture into the fog of ignorance. Your mind is like a lantern, conscious and full of thought. You're ability to understand that what was written has meaning the fuel. Let op's post be the spark that ignights it. New found knowledge lighting your way and hopefully those of others around you.
