While my brain was frying on acid I discovered that I am everyone. So, if I ease the misery of the lowest person I despise, I do that good deed for myself and ease my misery.
If I harm my neighbor, I harm myself. I also believe that everyone will eventually have to endure the pain they cause others. Like, the person who rapes and murders will have to experience what it's like to be raped in murdered, either in this life , but more likely in purgatory or some other realm of atonement and purification.
Everyone's problems are my problems, but everyone's joys and good fortunes are mine as well.
Now I've obviously not been the first person to come up with that , but the way in which it hit me was inspired not by anything I read or heard.
That was when I also became convinced everyone is God and God is always evolving and changing (hopefully for the best. But since we are God, we play a big roll in deciding what "best" even means).
Now, do you pretty much agree with the OP philosophy or statements?
