Hmmm.... I think I know where you're coming from, @enazwahsdarb. Certainly more than just your mother and father, spouse, or children care about you. But yes, in the grand scheme of things, life (other people) doesn't really care about us as individuals. (Or perhaps even not collectively...)

BUT... That's until you make a connection with the unwashed masses of people out there. To the person sitting next to you on the bus with whom you've never spoken? No. Odds are they don't care. But offer them your seat or pick up their dropped glove for them? Well, caring starts to seep in if ever so slowly.

We make connections to ensure our own survival. We make friends. We forge bonds. We grow together with others like ourselves so that there's a safety net over this chasm we call life. Ask a stranger for a helping hand and odds are you'll get one. Not every hand will reach out. A few might even smack you one. But hands will reach out.

With that, I look forward to your next post. And if you need a hand with it, let me know. I'd be glad to help you with it. Because... cough I care about you. ;)

Followed you.
