Sara-Witts-end: awesome thoughts

Yeah, so maybe I’m a little salty this morning because I got woken-up by Bizzy shanking my right nostril with her toenail, but……
Sometimes I look around, and I’m astounded at how good and accepting people can be. Other times I wake up and I am BAFFLED at where we still are as a species.
Look at us. Look around. If it isn’t sprouting from the ground, visible on a clear night, warming your back and lighting the sky, or falling from it, then we as humans, likely made it.
Our brains are astonishing. We can solve numerical equations and riddles of physics, cure disease, we can build beautiful homes, luxurious cars, and things that catapult us miles and miles across the sky just for shits and giggles.
We have figured out how to communicate with thousands of people at once, using little palm-sized, picture taking, artificially intelligent entertainment boxes.

But you know what we can’t seem to do with our brains, complete with the most complex frontal lobes of any being???
We can’t seem to figure out how to be nice to one another. Seems like a huge waste to me.

If we were less sentient beings that couldn’t crawl out from under our animalistic instincts, it would be excusable.
But, it’s sad to think we are so superbly equipped to do good things by one another, and not just MAKE good things for OURSELVES, while we dismantle the people around us…. and we can’t seem to get it.

If there IS some cosmic “thing” observing our behavior, then I bet you he/she/it is highly disappointed.
