There are a lot many things happening around this very instant. The west is in trouble, the middle east is in danger, and south Asians are also suffering.
All this reminds me of the Buddha saying that the world is full of suffering and every suffering has a cause. This can be inferred as the world is not interdependent but everything has a dependent origination.
A similar thing was stated by a renowned sociologist Max Weber, as per him the basic unit of sociology and society is social actions, actions which are influenced by the actions of any other person.
Are we the only reason for the sufferings, troubles, joys, and happiness of our lives?
Or are you dependent upon another person?
I am not a very experienced, learned person.
Although my small experiences and learnings have made me realize that it’s good to have our joys, and sorrows dependent upon someone else at times. It makes us feel more human. It makes that adrenaline rush go faster. So it’s good to find your joy in the smiles of others, to find your reason to grieve in the tears of others.
After all, we all are just part of one big world.
