But then, when beauty is gone, you start giving up on all the things that secretly form the soul. Over time, against your will, you become one of the ignorant who believe they are smart to choose functional over beautiful.

How unfortunate it is that all those words we depend on when shit hits then fan - when there is war, disaster, starvation - sound lame and cheesy when you want to build a political or moral guideline out of them ... Perhaps they prefer only to be lived.

When there is no safe place to hide away from the realities of the world, home will be made of humans who hold you when their hands are already full.
Long before we are left behind on this planet to become extinct - before the spaceships of the ultra-rich take off + Mars is colonized, as the scarcity takes over - of democracy, human rights, courage, freedom, dignity, kindness, food or oxygen - we will survive not like in the Hollywood movies with a hero or through barbarity, but by holding each other when nothing holds us.
