MODERATORS
We are more than our instincts. But sure, I acknowledge that following some instinctual drives can give some satisfaction.
For example: I made a choice to not have children and I am happy with my choice. I don't feel like I am missing out on anything. It's actually quite the opposite. While I see my peers raising little shits, I get to stay a little shit and embrace my inner child. It's half a selfish choice because I want my life to be better, and half a compassionate choice because the world doesn't need new children for its meat grinder.
If I had little choice and was forced onto a path, that would be disheartening. So I get you.
