Once your down at the bottom you kind of get used to it.
You look around and wonder - is it even worth trying to climb backup?
Then sometimes you realize you're not even at the bottom - do you decide to try then?
Why bother?
half the time there are more people trying to kick you down that help you crawl out. We live in a me first society. We live in a - I want it now society. Whether you want to admit or not we live in a - I really don't care about you society.
You don't agree. How many good news stories do you ever hear about? You don't - WHY? We (society) thrive on other people pain, we thrive on watching others suffer, & we continue to watch in blankness until it happens to us.
The whole nation watched as people worried about the "balloon boy" - how did that turn out?!?!
Whose interest did his parents put first? NOT HIS, he puked not once, but twice on national TV as his parents let this 6 year old boy get grilled about something he said, & as a society we watched - why?
Why didn't the first new station has social services in the wings to take that poor kid. Everyone who saw it could see he was emotional distressed, but yet thousands watched and did nothing.
So why climb out? So you can turn on the news and hear about a little girl whose body was found? A family has lost a little girl & yet we sit and watch? Why?
I think we would all be so much better if we were all like children and just kept asking the simplest of all questions?
WHY?
(and not exception the answer - just because)
