the dog bites since it was bitten. all of us, reciprocal, reflections of a life that happened to us. coddled or ignored, we reflect back to the world a glimpse of what happened to us. both immediate and long term, we are sweet since we were loved, we bully if we were picked on, waves of energy flowing through us onto one another. you can see it in people, in moments, what sort of life they come from, what they are going through. its best to understand this.

both a blessing and a curse, this life of ours. for in order to feel pleasure we must also have pain. the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system stays the same between those in that system. perhaps you could add to it that all this pain/pleasure also stays constant, that the type of energy stays constant in a system. then into the world and onto other people, into our work and upon our animals, we spill our emotions into a waiting vase that itself will tip into another. a flow or emotions and feelings as real as anything else we pretend is real. all the good and evil of the world playing out over and over again.

could we possibly stop this and cease the pain and problems from entering into others…to avoid the vile that appears now and again as we stumble foreword in this darkness? what we do know is we can witness it unfold and know where it is coming from and have empathy for that. for there are no bad dogs but simply mistreated ones that are lashing out. it is no ones fault, we started with both good and evil and some of us get a bit more or less then others.
