“Do you think any of us will ever get to be just "ok" for real? Like no crisis, impending apocalypse, destabilizing nonsense, just people who are ok with what they need and who they love. It feels like a pipe dream to me these days....”

I would not know. I'm not free from my desires I've never had the privilege of being able to let them go. I've heard stories of people who have been able to do so but I cant possibly believe it if I don't have proof or done any research. but I'll tell you what, maybe that's the beauty of life, living for something. of course, wanting too much and getting greedy is horribly wrong, but its besides the point. just ask yourself, if you made every dream of yours come true, every desire, every conversation uve wanted to have, every friend uve wanted to make, what would you do with your life?

we have to act to know that and we can't find comfort in our inactivity

Honestly, I don't think so. Not to be pessimistic, but no one is ever truly "ok" - and that's.... kind of the beauty of it, you know? |Impending apocalypse, economic crisis, impending wars, it's all well. Bullshit. But, even then, it gives us the opportunity to be Human. To still see some light shining amongst the sea of dark, like a trans person finally living away from their unaccepting family, or a patient getting the funds they need for their surgery, or a family finally escaping from the clutches of war that had its grip on them. We may not have that world right now, but staying here and questioning if anything will ever be okay isn't going do you or me any good. Go out there, and find the people that make you feel that way! Find people that care about you, that love you. People who care about others, and wants change just as much as you do. I promise there are people out there who are thinking the same thing. And while I know it's going to be hard, as everything has been, but I believe that you'll find your way. That we'll all find our way. Sorry for making this so long, whoops.
