When Everything Everywhere All at Once said āThe only thing I do know is that we have to be kind. Please, be kind, especially when we donāt know whatās going on"Ā
When the Good Place said āWhy choose to be good every day when there is no guaranteed reward now or in the afterlife⦠I argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people and our innate desire to treat them with dignity. Simply put, we are not in this alone.āĀ
When Jean-Paul Sartre said āāHell is other peopleā is only one side of the coin. The other side, which no one seems to mention, is also āHeaven is each otherā.

Heaven on the other hand is very simple, and very hard: caring about your fellow beings.ā
