Treating People Well


 I don't base my worth based on how intelligent I am. I know this society places a dollar value on people based on how useful they are to the interests of those who run this place, and that often involves intelligence, but I view my worth from my own perspective is based on how I treat people.


 This world has too many arrogant people who get their sense of worth based on how superior they feel towards other people. It has too many cruel people. Too many predatory people. Too much hate. 


    Kindness and compassion seem to be a dying art in a lot of places. 


If I have to sacrifice my kindness and compassion for wealth and power I deserve none of these given to me by anyone.


I know I have an arrogant streak. I know I have gifts that others don't. I get a little competitive when others hold over me what they are better than me at and what they have that I don't. I still go out of my way to ask strangers how their day is going and tell them to have a good day and take care of themselves. 


   I'm moody. I know that too. I've always been moody, and my mood instability can make me difficult to be around at times. But I still treat people well.


I have resentment too. Lots of it. As you can tell by many of my posts I'm quite anti-patriotic these days, but I will say deep in my heart I am detesting witnessing the degradation and destruction of this country and the world. I still treat people well.


I treat people well because we are on the same team. Even in the midst of my most heated spite and rage, I still treat people well. 


The world's too divided as it is. I feel that if I treat people well and not view others as enemies and instead view them as troubled and bitter souls like me, I may be able to heal that division even if its a miniscule amount of healing.


I hate slavery, so I don't treat people like slaves.


I hate oppression, so I don't partake in the oppressing of others. I'd rather be oppressed than be an oppressor, because then I don't burn after this life like all the slavers and oppressors will.


If I have to be poor and oppressed and drugged to keep my dignity, my faith, and my soul, than so be it. God's kingdom is far greater than this society, and his liberty is on a level that makes the liberty here look like a dungeon.


I treat people well, primarily, because of how I was treated, and I never want any other human to feel the pain, fear, and sadness that I have felt. 


Hurt people hurt people much of the time. I'd rather heal the hurt.
