Random midnight thoughts but what if the reason why empathy exists is because that's kind of a way to make up for humanities imperfections? Humans are social and empathetic because it is a way to fill in the gap to make us all complete? If we were perfect, then humanity no longer needs to exist. Everyone is happy, everyone no longer feels pain, everyone likes each other, everything is just... perfect.
If emotions are meant to be expressed and art is meant to be an outlet of our emotions to make people feel things, then would that mean that perfection is simply just us being quite... soulless?
It's almost 1 AM and I'm sleep deprived /and/ I'm also having a mild stomach ache. My brain would not put me to rest.
