Everything we experience has an effect on us. What do you choose?

I've watched two things today that affected me profoundly and brought me to shaking tears. One was a movie, the other a you-tube video. One was a terrifying trip into the darkest parts of society, and the other was a 5 minute message from the future.

Right now, walking away from The Purge, I still feel sick to the stomach, trembling and crying at the violence of it. The movie was fine - but knowing the reality behind it is what scares me. That if it were to be a part of our reality, human nature would assert itself and we would fall to evil.

Watching Life vs Entropy earlier today, I felt my heart swell with what we could achieve. So I offer it up in the hopes that the good in us can drown the evil. We may be creatures born of darkness and violence, but we can make a choice. We can choose to fall to the dark, or we can rise above to the light, accepting who we are and working to change it. Let there be light.
