    yeah, the universe/nature/whatever you want to call it is absolutely cruel but that’s due to its random nature. think about kids with leukemia, etc.

      I’d say it’s more tragic than cruel. In my mind, cruelty requires conscious decision, something the universe is incapable of. The universe isn’t inflicting anything, it is simply happening.
