A buddy of mine and I were discussing my disappoinment in people and he emailed me back this:
For you in particular, I think you can might practice seeing other humans and yourself with the lenses with which you perceive dogs. The only misbehaving, mean or "bad" dogs are ones that have been mistreated, mistrained or abused, and you have the capacity to see that--have you ever been truly angry at a dog, even a pain-in-the-ass one?
If only humans could overcome their damage as amazingly as dogs can. But we act out our pain till kingdom come. So when you see that, remember the puppy within-everybody.
I emailed him back this morning telling him, "The only problem with this is that I LOVE dogs and don't usually care for most people."
Even with that said, I understand that most people are NOT spiritually developed; Yet I find it (some people's FUCKED UP behaviour) REALLY SAD and rather tragic.
