Im facing a sort of personal, morale dilemna here. When exactly was it when I stopped caring? I'm with my brother and we get pulled over. He has multiple warrants and gets arrested on the spot. Didn't care at all. My mother comes down to the police station in tears, frantically searching for my brother. She's in hysterics and crying the entire time. I didn't care, I kept telling her to calm down. He recently got into a fight and got his jaw kicked in. I didn't care. And it's not only family, I've noticed that I've become less compassionate in a lot of things. People I see on the bus or walking down the street, the beggar who asks me for spare change for food and I tell him Im broke while holding a ten dollar bill in my pocket that I dont really need, old people who cant remember where they are or what they're doing and need help, I don't lift a finger or volunteer to help, I just try to mind my own buisness. What I'm getting at is that I don't like how I've become, how uncompassionate I am, how I've decided it's better not to get involved than to show a little good samaritanism. I want to be a big brother, a mentor, a good example. someone to look up to, but also not become an outcast because of this. What I mean is that I don't want to be shut off from the world for simply trying to help others, I'd like a life of my own as well. Chivalry died a long time ago, now Darwinists are enjoying their time of fortune, our civilization has slowly re-reared towards the kill-or-be-killed mindset and nobody seems to notice, or care. I'm sick of it. I want things to change.

I don't understand how Darwinism fits at all with your situation, dear. shrug.gif

I know that you're feeling apathy, but at least you know the rest of the world isn't. Your mom cares very, very, very much. I'm sure one of these days, very randomly, you'll come across something that you will care about just as much as your mom cares about you and yoru brother. Something you'll be able to throw yourself into and really delve in it.

Right now, it seems that you are (and as am I) just trying to find that balance between taking care of yourself and taking care of others. Try throwing yourself to the other edge, maybe, see what you like better. Force yourself to be like Dani (okay, maybe not that extreme tongue.gif), but while you can't force yourself to care, you can force yourself to try.

Darwnism. Survival of the fittest.

Get it? Make the connection?

(Note: I'm not really sure if what I said was entirely correct, so please feel free to correct me!)
