One of the things that hurts most about this world is knowing we should all love each other -- care for each other's wellbeing, feel and act towards each other with compassion and sympathetic joy, value each other's existence -- and yet see how horribly far we fall short of that. And that those with the most power are often the ones who fall further short of this love than anyone else. They have the most power to shape the world, and they shape it in their own empathy-deficient image. The most heartless among us are the ones who most control us.

This must be changed.
