no babies on board

In a world where the 7 billionth person was just born, we are still convincing ourselves and validating the idea of bearing more children. But for why? So people can experience “being a parent” or “raising something of their own”? Come on. Technology has allowed for the ability to slow reproduction. We don’t live very long; just a sliver in an epoch of time. Most of this time we're complaining about living. All the while, millions of children are homeless and absent a loving person in their lives. Even monkeys become seriously emotionally distressed when absent love or even touch. Are you actively loving?


The following things I have basically pulled out of my ass, but it's thoughts I have been mulling over lately:

Try to do well while you’re still here. Love everyone that you can.

Don't be a selfish asshole. Look outwards from yourself.

Don't be wasteful in matters of love, health, and the environment.

Take care of the planet and the people on it right now. Anthropocentrism and all of its subcategories are worthless. You’ll feel more alive once you let go of having pride in the things that man has decided are most important.
