I need to know something.
If the world is indeed on a steady decline, an inexorable slope toward oblivion...
Do we really need people pointing it out all the time? Will that help fix things, or make them better? Is it okay for a handful of people to assume the rest of us are ignorant, self-absorbed assholes? (Which many an American is, I grant)
Those of us who don't have the capacity or ability to contribute to any greater good, however minute...and I'm not speaking of myself, necessarily...what good are we?
I'm essentially questioning the necessity of people who are watching events unfold from afar, pointing and...not laughing, but kvetching...without really doing anything themselves.
Because I've let them make me feel guilty about myself. A feeling I can't help but feel is somewhat warranted.
D'ah. I've gone and confused myself.
And I'm lonely.
Have a good one!
