What can I do?
What I am going to write might sound somewhat selfish and maybe it is a little, but I don’t mean it to be. Everyday I go about my life and come into contact with people who seem to be hurting in one way or other. Some people I see, such as the grocery check-out lady or the Starbucks man, I don’t to deeply about, but sometimes it hits me… these people have their own lives and they are probably going through some really hard stuff. I see friends, or people my age that are hurting and lonely and need someone to talk too. I feel such a push to do something about it, but then I think… how much can I do? If I start a meaningless conversation will it really turn into anything? It I hang out with this person or try to create a friendship with them, is it really worth it? Why do I feel this burden for people and then sometimes don’t do anything about it? Sometimes I tell myself… "there is only so much you can do, you haven’t called this person because you are so busy, and this person will probably abuse your friendship so why even start." Growing older is hard and complicated and seeing the pain in the world from people who are extremely close to me to the gas station attendant at the local Shell really gets to me. Then I say… WHAT CAN I DO!? This is completely random, but last night I listened to an actor recite the first 20ish chapters of Genesis and when he came about he part of who Eve gave birth to and stuff… I just don’t see how the world couldn’t be made without having brothers and sister marrying each other. There is a verse where one of Eve’s sons is banished and then he marries someone and has kids… WHO DID HE MARRY?
