(to an extent, of course...)

I've never been one to judge others, however i'd join in on social stigmas against certain groups.. "furries", for example.

However.. as I grow older, I realize, that... who am I, to deny them their happiness.. suddenly the bill of rights makes sense.. everyone is entitled to happiness, everyone is entitled to be whom they want to be, to express themselves freely..

I've looked down on so many people, and looked up to so many others, but in the cosmic sense, we are all equals.. and thus, all that should matter, is one's happiness.

Do I want people to harm themselves? No, I do not.. and I do not wish for everyone to completely stop doing anything in the world that's unpleasant.. if that were to happen, nothing would ever get done, and we'd all be more miserable than we were before..

But I believe people do deserve the right to be happy.. as life is a way of life, and not a goal, to deny one's preferred way of life, would be to deny their happiness...

Obviously some preferred ways of life that we think make us happy aren't truly what we need, but we will seek our loved ones to help us see that.. but if we are truly happy doing what we do -- regardless of what it may be -- then no one should be denied that right, no one should be denied to live their life as they see fit..

I'm all for happiness, and I will only serve to encourage people in their search for the path that leads them to "happiness".
