I love the stupidity of my fellow men
In times of crisis the character of a person, the population, shows! If yesterday we were good and noble, today everyone is the next to himself.
Fights over toilet paper, the mother of a friend was stolen noodles FROM THE SHOPPING TROLLEY, all of a sudden, all the countries cut themselves off, yesterday still cosmopolitan and tolerant, today closed and aggressive, within a few days, many of my fellow men have turned into zombies, the Walking Dead, finally live and in color.
So completely I can not understand the attitude of some zombies (formerly fellow humans), we all have to die, so why this inhumanity?
From Buddha this sentence seems to come: "In the society many forget the most important, the humanity"!
Not stronger, further, higher, but more human, more conscious, with decency, man should behave in difficult times.
Gandhi said: "You and I are one. I cannot hurt you without hurting myself".
Now, concepts such as cohesion, help, understanding and compassion are the values to live by. In good times and in bad times, the wedding is called. Preaching values and ideals in good times, it's not easy at all, but in a difficult phase, that's when character shows itself. And believe me, the crisis passes, the bad character remains.
A person feels transformed as soon as he is treated humanely.
In difficult moments, the words of the enlightened Buddha may give comfort, his teaching is built on humanity. Take advantage of the crisis and let yourself be inspired by the statements of the holy man, bring peace and a stable center into your life through his example, rethink the way you treat the people who are close to you, go 'within yourself'.
A collective hypochondria towards the dangers of life is counterproductive, LIFE IS DANGEROUS, we can all take our last breath at any time, tomorrow is not today, what is to come is uncertain, but how we live, we can determine, we can be measured by it.
Albert Einstein, whom I adore, said, "Two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, but I am not quite sure about the universe."
And Confucius said, "Stupidity is not knowing little, nor wanting to know little, stupidity is believing you know enough!"
I, for one, love the stupidity of my fellow man.
