I've been thinking a lot lately, about nothing, really, and I've been wondering about this "nothing" thinking--this thinking that gets me nowhere. How does it affect me? Well, for the most part my thoughts were ones of constant superiority--how this one doesn't do that and how that one does this. But, who cares, really? I've asked myself this question many times. I've also asked the same to others when I found that their thinking was meandering and that I was borderline suicide for having to hear it. Who cares, really? That's a good question--one that we should ask ourselves, often, I believe. This question only pertains to the constant complaining many of us have about what others are doing. If you don't like it, then go, do something else, but if your life is built around the critiquing of other people, then you are in the wrong business. No one's life should be based on what other people are doing and how much someone doesn't like it. I find this way of being to be quite interesting, and I'm guilty of it, too, but who cares really. Who cares if I think this person is doing the wrong thing? Who am I to say? As long as they're not harming themselves or others, then it's none of my business. And if they are harming themselves or others, then why am I complaining and not helping? Each of us has our own journey to trek, and if we're so busy criticizing others, as they take their journey--in abstract ways, then we, certainly, can't be journeying ourselves. I just think we need to mind our own journeys and focus on things that are really important like natural disasters, clear cutting the rain forest, child abuse--and instead of complaining about that, do something about it. People want to sound so intelligent from their seat in front of the television, but what are they doing, really? They're saying, Who cares, really? And those things, to me, are their business--to care for the planet and one another, especially our littlest ones. If you don't care enough to help, then don't say anything. That's all I have to say.

I love you!
