>>11843706I have pondered this thought many times when walking my dog. He always wants to go to new places where he has never been before, trying to insist untill he gives up. He did try to run away a few times, and even if he did, he doesn't know the reality of living on the street, or getting picked up and put to sleep by municipal sanitation...
That reality is horrible, yet he constantly tries to uncover it. I think humans are the same, as we advance into better understanding reality, we will get to the conclusion that the most fundamental nature of reality is horrid, which is why our brains adapted to abstract and approximate everything, otherwise we would all kill ourselves instantly.
