A thought sparked from this podcast:
- A cancer is something that has a smaller "self". Meaning it tries to live for itself, but because of its disconnection from the surrounding selves, it is not receptive to how its own actions effect others.
- How does a cancer happen? Continuous stress on the individual, to where it needs to adapt or die. This could be through carcinogens, or even how drinking hot liquid will continue to kill cells in the mouth.
Cancer is a universal selfishness, as a result of continual stress, and reduces whatever organization to something simpler.
Ecosystems lose cohesion because it cannot adapt to rapid change like deforestation or toxic waste.
Societies reduce to individuals fighting for their own prosperity, to the detriment of others and other societies.
Individuals (humans, animals, plants) reduce to individual cancer cells, because the cells are trying to survive in the face of carcinogens and repeated recycling from environmental stress.
Don't be a cancer. Look to be cohesive with others. Continue to build and become something greater than what you individually can accomplish.
