All joking aside, I don't think you're a weakling nor a fool. New Year
resolutions can be inspiring. It's helpful to set goals and focus on
the things we want in life. Cheers to all who want to make their life
and the life of others better and happier.

At least you have one thing going for you ...

I imagine a better world when what people value has more to do with what they love doing than about what money can buy. Going after your passions and leading a life inspired by them is central to what drives my own life and is something I encourage others to experience. That's why the idea of humans and animals being enslaved/abused is so intolerable to me. Freedom, not only in a political sense, but freedom to choose one's own path in life, should be everyone's right. On a global, cultural level, this right should be embraced and nurtured. It's incomprehensibly vile to think of how the greed of some humans, and the thirst for power over others, devastates the lives of so many.

"By respect for life we become religious in a way that is elementary, profound and alive.
Impart as much as you can of your spiritual being to those who are on the road with you, and
accept as something precious what comes back to you from them."
