A theory of the formation of civilization is that when someone was injured, others moved to give him care until he healed. This is unlike the animal world, where, if you are injured, you are left to die.
But, i feel that, now, helping others has become a nemesis as it has increased to a reaction which has allowed us to be unnecessarily dependent. We are now a species of civil cripples.

We can always trust you to find the worst possible light to view any situation in. Co-operation is strength. Working together and sharing our learning is what makes us strongest.

Just because someone needs help or assistance in one way or another, doesn’t mean they aren’t valued. Take a look at Stephen Hawking as one example.

the world we live in is very different than the world animals live in. weve evolved in vastly different ways. some animals also have nurturing qualities, like elephants.
Animals dont really have a choice. Everyone needs help from time to time. They can’t do ■■■■ for you if you live in a jungle tribe. They’ll say goodbye to you while you’re still alive and separate you to go off and die. The way I look at it is either you live or you die. Not much choice in the matter unless you’re some kind of hitler type.
Some loved ones of mine who died were given wonderful medication to assist them in dying with better ease.
I definitely support assisting dying.
Not for depressed teenagers or people but for people with terminal illnesses and who are in agony.
Best drugs ever should be given to them.
In Sweden they give wonderful medicines I heard.
Strong good stuff.
N so it should be.
One takes away anxiety and fear of death and one takes away pain and one helps breathing.
I put my girl to sleep because she was old and having difficulty standing up etc
She was my everything (and still is as death may not do us part) and I was kissing her and telling her I love her as she died.
If my dog gets so old and is in pain and can’t walk I hope to put him to sleep with love too.
