I have answers, I need questions!

 

Is anybody else confused about the condition of the world?

 

Should I feel happy because I have food and shelter and drinking water or should I feel bad because I have these things and other people don't? Or both?

 

Do I have to be on one side of a debate or the other? Or can I stay in the middle and still have an opinion that counts?

 

Can I even have an opinion that matters? Do I even count?

 

Can people learn to accept kindness when it comes? Or will we always keep wondering if people are actually what they act out?

 

Will we ever realize that our questions just don't have any answers, because we are stupid?

So many questions!

 

But I do echo your questions quite often.

It's not the world I'm concerned about, but the people who live on it. Don't forget it's the minority who ruin life for the majority ;)

You should be happy and grateful that you have a pet named briggins! :D

ha how often did I think about things like these when I listened to this song?Sooo often-.---

this is some deep stuff:thinking:

Every creature on this planet is as confused as you are. There is none who have received devine answers. Take Solace and the fact that you live in the only country on this planet, (UNITED STATES) where you could even have this thought without subsequent repercusssions. With that being said you have the freedom to pursue your own answers. Thanks to God and a bunch of dead men!

I think the answer to all of them SHOULD be 'a nice cuppa tea should do it'...but not many people have caught on to the idea

Be happy and grateful for what you have. Next time you complain about stale biscuits or burnt toast, spare a thought for the people in the world for whom stale biscuits might just be a life-saver.

 

Don't feel as if you MUST have an opinion about everything. I'm extremely undecisive and contradict myself at times, and I don't give a flying f**k if people find that unattractive - it's called being human.

 

I don't understand war.

 

I don't understand how somebody could get a kick out of bullying another person and making their life a misery. I will never forgive the people that have bullied me in my life. Never.

 

And...

 

I think the answer to all of them SHOULD be 'a nice cuppa tea should do it'...but not many people have caught on to the idea

 

Amen to that.

:lol:

I was just listening to a Moody Blues song about just that subject..

It's an age-old question - how much should we give? Should we enjoy the moment and our biscuit, or worry about those who don't have the luxury? To me, there is a balance to be struck - take some time to enjoy life, but also walk in the shoes of others & given when you can, or when it's appropriate. If you feel called to a certain duty, then by all means, pursue it! And a good thing is to reflect - talk about it over a cup of tea. Tea is nice, and helps us recover after the bruises life dishes out.

But seeing deeper into the why things are the way they are can help us make better decisions, and be smarter about the choices we make to help solve those problems. One has to also recognize that things may not be as bad as perceived, as the news highlights and exacerbates the worst, in order to get our attention, and sell more ads. Still, there are many in unfortunate circumstances, and as long as the eyes of the world are fixed on the problems, and we keep standing up for justice and those less fortunate, the matter does get addressed.

It's all a gamble out there, but we can gamble smarter, and have better outcomes on the average.:)
