Fyodor Dostoevsky ― Crime and Punishment

[oceverse]

Please remember that almost everyone around you is traumatized. I didn’t understand this when I was younger. I wondered why people acted so strangely and irrationally. Maybe all children wonder this. The author Robert Anton Wilson said (paraphrasing), “We have never seen a completely sane adult human.” No one makes it out of this life alive. It’s not their fault. Mercy, kindness, forgiving — these are what makes one human. They are other names for love. People break in the strangest of ways.

Despite how open, peaceful, and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you as deeply as they’ve met themselves.
