The world is a nightmare. You can either give in to the bleakness and let it swallow your spirit, or you can appreciate and elevate the good in defiance to the bleakness, and let it fuel your resolve to multiply that good. Platitudes are useful baby steps for those half submerged in the nightmare already, and frankly it’s presumptuous to assume they’re hollow.
I dunno, I really enjoyed the post. Thanks OP!
Oh I know people do, I just don’t know how
Not saying people shouldn’t be posting stuff like this, I wish I could enjoy it too =/
many people are like tomato plants which need a stick to be bound to, otherwise they fall over
these platitudes are just a dead, inanimate stick. they don’t inherently bring joy, but their application and distribution still helps.
