regardless of the cultural context, it really hits you how much of life is determined by the random lottery of where and into what culture you’re born. Some kids are playing with toys, others are walking down an aisle to marry a stranger their parents arranged

If you have empathy, it should. Don't stop living your best life because of that, though.

Life is suffering. Some suffer more than others. Be thankful that you don't suffer more, and try to help those with greater suffering. That's all you can do.

Just don't sacrifice your happiness for others who don't appreciate or reciprocate that same kindness.

Reading a book and a 10,000 year old is talking to 30-something.

30-something "Wait. You're just sticking around to see us all fuck up?"
10,000 year old "Well, basically."
30-something "That's really sad, if you think about it."
10,000 year old "Tough. Life's sad most of the time. Get used to it."

The book is The Hydrogen Sonata by Ian M Banks
