You generalise, my dear friend, because I AM...NOT!

Yes, there is evil in the world, but you did not create it - you only create how you perceive it or react TO it.

For you see, I also know what is going on, but I distance myself from it.

As brutal and harsh as it may sound, I only care about myself - for my own sanity, mostly.

While most 'spiritual people' are all compassionate, empathetic, caring for every living creature and feel bad/sad for all the suffering in the world, I am of the opinion that unless I am directly affected, why should I care?

After a while of 'starving refugees'...'mass shootings'...'terrorist acts' which appear in the media on almost a daily basis, I know that the best thing that I can do as an individual is to raise my OWN vibes...because there's nothing else I can actually DO about the global situation...and so, total desensitisation is the unfortunate result of this almost constant bombardment with one 'crisis' after another. Sad, but true.

Thankyou guys for your kind words. I too have realised that unless I care for myself I am lost. It reminds me of this quote - If you don't care when you are young then you have no heart. If you still care when you are old then you have no brain.

Self preservation is the order of the day.

Put Yourself first until you get back on track....spoil yourself,get out in the fresh air.don't worry about the rest of the world..It will take care of itself while you take care of YOU.

Self preservation is important because you cannot help others if you don't look after yourself
It starts with yourself and extends outwards.
