27?! Oy vey :) Ah well, not 30 yet; even 30 is not so bad. Wisdom of my 27 year old self unsolicited? The golden rule, in whatever tradition you learned it from, is key. Epistemology should be taught from an early age. “Politics” serves more to perpetuate tumultuous rhetoric to benefit political parties than it does to pose intellectual insight to like-minded thinkers. In terms of our “nature”, our only ‘humanity’, I think, is only to transcend any supposed humanity we might consider innate. Culture, all forms, are a form of education. Education is fundamentally “free”. There is no such thing as “evil”. Evil is not a motivation only an afterthought. “All You need is Love” is one of the best songs ever written, not solely due to it’s level of “catchiness”, but because of it’s message. More to come as I get older :)
