The funny thing about human suffering is that everyone hears
about it and, unless you’re a psychopath you feel sad, then most times we just
put it to the back of our heads. My response to a world use, I must confess is
to feel bad and recognize that it is happen but
never act to end it. Whereas with a friend I would do just about
anything to help them, and fix whatever problem they are having. I don't just
listen and feel bad, I act when friend
is in need, so why don't I act when it is a global issue? We ought to respond
to every issue. Those are our brothers and sisters dying and suffering we
should help them, but everyone? We are called to help everyone we can. Everyone,
in solidarity, is our family. We must look after each other for when we need
help ourselves. I help with hurricane sandy when we needed to donate money at
school. I drove my friend his keys when he forgot them at a party. I however,
never help any of my brothers and sisters in Iraq and Afghanistan. I never help
the poor and homeless in my own neighborhood. I think that is what we as population
need to work on. Stop stressing about our own lives but worry about the lives
of the people around us. Looking at our busy day, and taking a second to help
someone who needs it. Who really needs it, because we don't need that one
second a day.
