“By each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.”
― David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas
We are a each a product of every decision we make. Of every decision we all make. Every life is effected by every other one. All life is just energy... Given form. We are what happens when energy solidifies. And we all come from the same energy. Gender isn't about reproduction, sex is. You can be human, without sex. People, creatures, plants, all life has done so before. We leave the continuing on to others, more capable, or able. Life happens. Gender is what we perceive ourselves as. Our personal identity is just that... It's personal. It's individual. It is unique. How we see ourselves is our identity. And I think I speak for us all when I say we wish others could see us the way we see ourselves... And we also wish sometimes that others would see themselves as we see them. But what we must understand is that we are ALL connected. We are, all of us, brothers, sisters, partners, souls, lights, in a great, vast darkness. The choice to commune, to be compassionate, kind, open, and unafraid, or to be cruel, fearful, hateful, and malicious... Is the choice we all must face, in every decision we make, everyday. I believe that if we make a conscious choice to be kind, to not fear, to rejoice in how DIFFERENT we are... Is the way to make our world better. To look outside our minds and bodies and attempt to SEE eachother as we wish to be seen... Is the greatest gift you may give anyone. Just be kind. And kindness will happen to you.
