This ain't nothing...

As I write this I can't help but feel the depth of despair that one must feel when they hear those words...What words, the words that make you look fear in the face and say "I just don't care".  Nothing will ever scare you again, there is no torture or natural disaster that can rattle me.  When your heart is broken, smashed and left for scraps.  You find a way to survive. I throw myself into others who are in need.  To sit and feel hopeless, is crushing.  Knowing that the need to help others outweighs my own agenda.  People want to be heard, seen and appreciated. Is compassion taught? is it innate? How can some people be so DENSE?  You learn early when dealing with life or death issues, that there are things that matter, and things that don't...

Please, when you think of how important you are and how precious time is...there is no price on giving your time.  You find out who your friends are...if you want people to show up and celebrate you then be sure you celebrate others...
