it’s always fascinating how
in the weeds
humans can be
when looking at things
minusculely
minutely

forgetting the grand meaning of the universe
[which is probably meaningless]
so have a great time and help others out
[not necessarily in that order]
is what i’ve established as my base reasoning for existing
and my personal philosophy centers mostly on kindness
and i know i have a ton of privilege
to have that as my core reason for being
and to have had the time to spend
really mulling over the universe and all it means
but i figure i might as well use my privilege
to bring kindness to others
philosophically
as well as personally
so that this portion of the world
can get just a little bit more
kind
than it was before me

that’s what i’m leaving when i’m gone:
a long long string of
kindnesses
