That was a little carousel of misery between Zed and Goat.
Zed, why must you run him around in circles so that he can see the answer to his own question on his own, couldn't you simply tell him the answer so that he did not have to learn anything?
Goat, don't you understand that misery is brought about by humans beings, specifically you and I and Zed as all as individuals have made choices that effect the way that others we do not know, at a time we are not aware of, will act, feel, understand, think.
Everything we say, and do, and feel and think, has an impact on the world. Crack whores do not start out as crack whores, their choices and the choices of others bring them to that point.
At the same time, their choices and the choices of others can stop them from throwing that baby in the dumpster.
God works through people, people who take beneficial actions, and words, and thoughts and feelings into the world, rather than negative thoughts and actions and feelings into the world.
We are the cause of our own misery.
if you are frustrated, you have been a cause of that because you are the one who chose to continue talking with Zed.
At the same time, Zeds approach is only making you more frustrated and helping to cause you to make certain choices in action, words, feeling etc.
The fact of the matter is that humans impact other humans in every capacity, whether we know it, or like it or not.
Life is complex. things happen because of a great variety of reasons, the number of which we could never measure.
A woman never throws a baby in the dumpster simply because she is a crack whore. Something drives that. something drove her to be a crack whore, which drives her to do other things, and eventually it all goes back to someone else, which goes back to someone else, which goes back to someone else.
Ultimately, what you say, think do and feel here in some small way in your perspective and a major way in the perspective of who it effect, will cause a crack whore 1,000 miles from you to either 1. throw her baby in the dumpster with the rats (which are also there because actions have made someone keep an area unclean) or stop using crack, trust people, get help and raise a healthy child that will become a nurse and provide health care to you when you are 75 years old in the hospital with a stroke.
Life is complex. God is complex. If you don't have time to understand it, don't complain about it. You cause most of your own misery through the effect you have on those around you, and thus their effect on those around them.
