Actually, people are good by nature and you're a fool if you think otherwise.

When you sneeze in public, strangers will say "bless you", even though they don't know you.

When you ask for directions on the street someone will show you the way, even though they have nothing to gain from it.

People squeeze their legs against the chair so you don't have to hop over them on your way to your seat in the theatre, and make funny faces to make babies laugh, and purposefully step on leaves to hear them scrunch, and hold the door open for someone leaving behind them, and ask what floor you're heading to when you enter the elevator, and send others photos of things that reminded them of them, and recommend each other songs, and ask if anyone else wants a coffee because they're getting one, and make videos teaching how to sew a button, and wish on shooting stars, and share fun facts, and listen to others rant about things they don't even understand, and let you cross the street first, and give a bit of their food to others, and laugh at jokes they don't find funny to make you feel good, and listen to kids talk for hours about nonsense, and let you know your keys fell from your pocket, and they may be strangers, but with every little gesture they're saying "I love you, I love you, I love you".

God, I needed to read this today. Humanity is overwhelmingly full of hope and kindness and it's very easy to forget that these days.

I wonder if having suicidal thoughts / being passive about your own life and death ever stops? Like will I always have some level of these feelings in the back of my mind? Will they eventually go away?

I don’t know…recently the way I’ve been phrasing it mentally is I just want to quit my life. I don’t, but I do.
