Conditional Reality

Because life is selfish. Because you would become a resource. Because people do not have a history of caring for natural resources. Because suffering is ubiquitous. Because the line of ill people would stretch to infinity. Because your tendency to want to help would eventually drain you of everything. Because you would die of weariness. Because you cannot save everyone. Because choosing would break your heart. Because eventually people would bring you their sick dogs. Because they would prefer a well pet to a healed relative. Because all that suffering would hurt you. Because the hardest to heal is yourself.
