No, this post is about "it is not a Moral or Personal Failing to Believe in the Things that are worth Believing in". When a piece of art moves you, it is ideally because you recognized some shared experience in its' expression; found new ways to grow from that expression. You thought you saw the Light in anothers' Soul, and the world seemed just a little less lonely for it. And so it is jarring when you see their darkness. What I didn't understand for the longest time was that darkness is in everyone. No one is "Good" nor "Evil", for we are all Fallible; we can choose Evil. The difficulty is, under the right circumstances, anyone will do hideously fucked up things. It's how we got all these Load Bearing Aesops. It's how we got to The Current Moment. God help us it's probably how Society will continue for a long time. But it isn't a moral failing to believe in the things worth believing in. As the times grow tough, as we all lock in for the Ride, as Grace seems to wither on the vine. Believe in them. Recognize them in the Moment. And maybe one day we can all let go of our Aesops before they destroy us entirely.
