Awareness kaizen

Life seems to be mostly about sharpening our awareness. The more we become aware of our environment and the underlying currents of emotion, the better we can respond with love, kindness and compassion - since we can notice more and more the ocean of awareness that binds us all into One. As we work to understand each other more, our vision of the world through each other's awareness becomes clearer and we all get enriched in the process.

jargon, node: Hanlon's Razor
Curious how it typically seems somehow much easier / more comfortable / energy-efficient to assume aggression against us rather than stopping to consider the likely limitations in others' perspectives.
