It feels to me that you are trying to learn compassion and empathy. Why
not start with people on this list? I don't think Ghandi or Jesus would
have sent this reply.
Does that make you wrong? Nah. You are just where you need to be. Guess
what? So is everyone else. Including David and Angelique and the witches
heading for the hills.
I think that we all come into life with a purpose. Maybe yours is to
learn how to share with those less fortunate than you. That's wonderful!
Have at it. My suggestion would be to spend you time doing instead of
lamenting all the lazy asses in the world that don't want to help.
Mother Theresa was too busy helping to have time to bitch.
Just because helping others through sacrifice is your purpose doesn't
mean it's everyone elses. Why not let everyone be who they are? Isn't
that the essence of love? Acceptance?
I am truly sorry about your financial struggles. I had some rough years
myself. I think at that time I was trying to live "spiritually" and
assuming that the money would take care of itself. That's where I
goofed. I have changed...I now follow my spiritual path while paying
attention to what's going on with my life in this world. I like driving
a car without dents and rust. I like living in a house without fear that
I'm going to be evicted. I like going out to eat at my favorite
restaurant and treating two other people. If I had no money tomorrow,
I'd still be OK. But having been in both positions, I prefer having the
cash.
