Will submitting a complaint actually do anything?

Life is simple. It gets hurt, doubts itself that it is strong enough to love, resents the source of pain, resents itself for resenting another, turns a blind eye to its true self, spends the rest of its life in fear acting like something its not and secretly hoping someone will come along and say no, you are good, you were always good and you deserve love. Same old story a trillion times every day. So every time someone is mean, it's just because someone was mean to them and they are bluffing, saying look I'm a mean person, I'm not as good as I want to be, I don't deserve love, go on tell me you don't love me - but what they are really saying is "Please love me!!!!!!" All they want is to be loved anyway. That's why unconditional love changes hearts. People are always ready and willing to receive it. In fact, they cannot resist it. It's just such a rare thing. And to give it to others, you have to give it to yourself. So you have to make the trip before you can help others, otherwise you won't see how to do it effectively because you will still be turned away from reality yourself. That's kind of the problem I'm running into here. I know how it is, but to use that knowledge effectively and actually help others, I need to cure my own problems. It's like that bible verse, take the splinter out of your own eye, then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother's eye. A lot of religion is make believe but Jesus actually knew what he was talking about. I just can hardly believe people are saying I have a tin foil hat on for saying we should all be nice to each other and not make the mistake of giving power to those who can't be nice to everyone. Isn't that reasonable? But they make fun of the truth because they can't accept the truth in their own hearts. It's called cognitive dissonance. They're still running from it. So let them run..not like I can do anything anyway.

I'm just saying..you'll never feel good about yourself if you aren't nice to others. That's simple enough for everyone to understand. I just wish people knew what they were really giving up. Life can be so much more than this pretend life in this pretend world as this pretend person. Reality is amazing, it's the best feeling ever, but you'll never see it if you don't learn to love yourself. Be good, be good, be good.. everyone be good.
