You know those days when you don’t feel like working? Today is one of them. Tomorrow will probably be one also. And Friday? Friday is usually an extension of Thursday in my workweek, and therefore is full of equal amounts of apathy. I get my job done though, so at least that counts for something.
But what am I here for?
Not at this office, I mean, but on this planet. Who am I helping? When I see a friend in need should I step in and offer my support? Or is that meddling? I don’t want to be in the middle of things but I also don’t want anyone to think I don’t care. I do care. Even if I don’t say anything, chances are good I am worrying about you. And how about those people who don’t have enough money for food, clothes, a place to sleep, transportation, a hot shower? I feel like I should do something to help them. I work hard for my money (though not as hard as I could, as evidenced by the above paragraph) and more or less do not spend it on every little thing that catches my eye, but I could cut back and use that money to help the less fortunate.
This whole thing is starting to sound like a liberal can’t-we-all-just-get-along idealistic pipe dream, which is not what I was shooting for. I guess I just want to get some direction back in my life … which means it’s time to make a list.
Stay tuned for how it turns out.
