are we really so far gone that we can no longer smile at strangers on the street?
Yes.
When we were in Chicago I was the only one who took a pamphlet from a man for some beauty shop and smiled and nodded at him through his little spiel about the shop. And when two homeless people said 'happy holidays' to us I was the only one who said 'you too'. And, really, that kind of depresses me.

I totally understand your point. I live for brightening up people's days. Because even if they don't remember me 10 minutes later, its just the random act of kindness that makes me feel like maybe humanity isn't totally fucked.

Negatively breeds rapidly. There is no denying that. Honestly, there was a time when I did try giving up in the face of all the shit I see pulled, both in my personal life, and in the world in general ( ... )

Anyways, I'm not a huge believer in karma or dharma as most people see it, but I feel that my own actions, however small, will play a role in improving things for the world in general.

oh, aye.

I used to be just as grudgey and hatey and give up because life isn't looking too pretty-y as anyone else.
but then, I realized what a phenomenal energy drain it all was.

hate feeds hate.
anger feeds anger.

but nobody seems to ever expect kindness and politeness and pacifism in the face of all that drama.

I can honestly say that there is no hate left in me. and damn, does it feel good.
this response will be in two comments, as I'm being dragged away.

Wonder who would win, ninja or pirate...

"Pirates are on boats!"
"Ninjas can run across water..."
"SHUT UP PHIL"

Sup kiddo, had the random urge to see what was up with you. Hope all is well.

the answer to that question is, of course, a ninja-pirate crossbreed. because that would just freaking rock.

I'm doing fairly well at the moment
