Humanity must be doomed.

I'm about to go all Emo and Edgy so watch out. A thought occurred to me after watching The Legend of Korra: Beginnings Part 2, that no matter how much we may strive for the greater good or work towards it, we can never eliminate the rotting part of us that causes War and Strife. Without Darkness, there can be no Light, but they must always be present together or not at all. And so despite our efforts to better the world and ourselves, there's always going to be that corrupt part that continually throws all efforts down the drain, so what do we have to work for? A temporary fix to a permanent problem? Or do we just embrace that Darkness and make it what pushes us forward and hope it's more malleable than the Human Condition?

  • I've questioned this myself a lot and it's really hard to pin point a definitive answer. There's probably lots of answers or quite possibly none at all. The way I [i]personally[/i] enjoy seeing it is that the good far out weighs the bad in humanity. And as long as we strive to do our part to be kind and helpful to others we can beat the "bad" away. I've seen small acts of kindness, and received a good share from complete strangers and friend, so much in my life that it'a impossible for me to hate anyone. Everyone has some sort of good in them. And good can be defined in so many different ways.
