Is it not selfish to bring a child into this horrible world?

Do people not think about the amount of hatred sown on the hearts of people these days and do you really wanna bring someone and expose them to the harshness of this world? Is it not selfish on some level.

I could never imagine doing this to anyone

No it is not...but it IS selfish to not want to show that child that there are still good people, that there is love and goodness, perfection in imperfection, beauty in ugliness. How to find, latch onto, and grasp that. To teach them hope and faith, how to give and to share. That is selfish...and cynical.
