I remember that I didn't exist before and that was fine.
A touch of humility helps too... why should I get benefits that beetles and dogs don't?
Life only exists because of death. I wouldn't want to take life away from the world by avoiding something I'm not meant to avoid.
I dont think anyone can exist without taking life from the world. Each meal is taking life away from this world, even vegans deny a seed a chance to become a plant, or injure a plant by harvesting it.
Yes, and so I must give it back.
