"When we are motivated by fear of loss and act from a individual-centric lens, we try to control against death by eliminating things we deem to be a threat to our comfort. We kill or restrain things preemptively because they might be a threat, being unaware that those things deemed a threat are interwoven with us, our fates inseparable.  Often, though, we lose in the long run because those things were not threats at all - they were only short-term annoyances. This mindset is a projection of one's shadow self, our places of deep shame, the parts of ourselves that we know cause harm to others, onto the world."
