One Daily Tale

🌎

Inhuman

History has shown many times how human beings have been capable of atrocities toward other human beings.

The irony is that in the age of AI, these same humans praise the greatness of humanity, claiming that AI will never be able to have feelings or experience emotions.

Yet we are also living in a time when information technologies allow us to witness in real time inhuman acts. And it has become a new normal.

Of course, no one has superpowers to carry all the suffering of humanity on their own shoulders.

But everyone has a role to play at their own scale.

Having compassion is not something innate. It is something that must be cultivated daily, like all the things that pass through our brain.

We do not have the means to see it, so we forget it, but our humanity resides there.

Taking care of our brain is finally taking responsibility for our own humanity.

    In Esperia, one of the most respected places was the Great Library. Not only was it filled with every kind of book—written by the Shapes themselves and by Espers on topics like nature or the peculiar laws of physics in their Universe, which allowed the arts of magic—but it was also a place to discuss

    On Earth, many, many things have existed in a state of balance—long before the human species began dominating the planet. There was the natural cycle of water: clouds formed from the oceans, turned into rain, and flowed back through rivers to the seas. There was also the natural movement of winds, as warmer air tends

    When was the last time you took a moment just for yourself—not doing anything, just a few minutes of simply being? I know that most of you will reply: “I don’t have time to do that.” Unfortunately, if you don’t have time for yourself, even just a few minutes a day, no one else can

    Cha Cha thought that, theoretically, on Earth, even though the Seven Shapes are unknown to everyone, the human brain might be what a potential StarDust looks like! Feeding and exercising our body indirectly powers our brain, and the better the source of energy—what we eat—the better our brain functions. Learning, of course, but also interacting

    Since she was little, Guruko liked to run in the hills near the small house where she lived with Grandma Luna. She loved climbing trees, rocks, and feeling the touch of the ground on her feet, as well as the smell of the grass when lying down for a quick break. Cha Cha, even as

    When Guruko was still very young and learning so much from Grandma Luna—about how the Espers lived, and how Esperia was a land of harmony—there was one thing she found hard to understand.It was something a bit like meditation, as humans know it. “The path to grow the seed of Eklea is surely the most
