Acceptance, appreciation, approval, these are all just part of human kindness. We all have similar needs. There is a necessary unity that must be created between any pair or collection of people in order to survive in a way that the needs of all can be met sufficiently.
I feel this unity is the definition of the human spirit, and I don't feel that it comes from this god character we have invented.
This unbreakable spirit is what has allowed humanity to become so strong and develop such intelligence. It has been no mistake that over the generations of history, mankind has chosen to cooperate and adapt to a harsh environment. This is what inspires me- this recognition of my deep history as a human being and the awesome mental capacity it has left to me.
Life should be cherished because consciousness is a gift we scarcely deserve, and has an expiration date we cannot avoid. Being kind and positive and harboring the desire to help every person in your life, unconditionally, is the only choice that honors the resilience of this great race properly.
I will never live my life as if it is a temporary challenge whilst some unknowable consequence awaits. I live my life for the consequences that occur now. The world that was left to us by those whose time ran out needs to be made better for those who will inherit it once our time is also at an end.
