its kinda dawned on me....

Jesus cares. My parents care, Praise God (!!!). Some Christians care...not just about me, but about people, in general. and yet...

by and large, in and of the world, nobody really cares. its...oddly creepy, actually. ive been thru the mental health system, so now i see more and more and more people on psych drugs and hospitals and therapy and...

hey, wanna know something? most of those "caring professionals..." don't care, either. if you have good insurance and/or $$$, they can fake it I guess, but genuine, true concern? nah.

Verna says people used to care more, for and about each other, but then the world started changing and people just got too busy, too wrapped up in their own lives, their own drama. she's in her late 70s, btw.

i dunno. the nt speaks to the dark(er) side of human nature. I think it was easier to spot, in pagan culture....they put it right out there, front and center, tragedy and triumph. do you think maybe that's why "coming of age" in modern cultures is difficult, sometimes? i mean, aside from the obvious social disintegration and nobody around you really caring, all that much...

the world has become a lot more clever about hiding the truth about itself, lies couched in euphemisms hidden in hard truths no one cares to prepare most of the younger set for dealing with, maybe because they're too busy and/or don't really care, anyway.

blah. im just thinking on this because some dudes were picking on me, from across the street, and....so what? they don't care for or about me. i doubt i actually know them. now that i think about it, im probably rubbing -some- people the wrong way because i live in an OK area (to me, its nice....not fancy, not pretentious, but...solid, good, safe) and I don't have a job and....blah blah blah....now I"m beginning to think...

i really am growing up, in Christ. God is Good! Bullies are a dime a dozen. "Schizophrenics" are, too, and I"m blessed that my people have resources and clout and God has willed a reconciliation...

yeah. yeah. so, i need to learn when to care and when not to care, too. toughen up, etc. i wouldn't say i am a wimp or that i was, even, it was more like...

i had 0 social skills and i just...oh, well, whatever. i need to stop caring about the past so much. Jesus spared me, even then.

i dont have to work. as someone who was picked on, mercilessly, for most of my life, that's a huge blessing. get picked on, mess up, get destroyed by shrinks, get dealt doses of cruelty like...whoa....

blah blah blah. to be fair, i had severe brain damage. i say "had" because...now, I have a "high(er) IQ." you know how some people say that psychiatrists can make it up as they go along? yeah, its true...they can, and do. my original IQ estimate was 120. its higher than that, now, but they've explained a way around it...

because that's what they do. LOL. oh, and, miraculous as that is -to- me and really -for- me...and happy as my parents are...guess what? by and large, in and of the world...

NOBODY CARES.

we are light unto a dark and dying world...

wise as serpents, innocent as doves...

it is what it is. :)
