So What... Lately it seems as if I have heard that phrase applied to everything and anything. People seem to look at the World and the events swirling around them, shrug their shoulders and say " so what..." as if nothing matters except themselves, their possessions and the next movie. The fact that we are on the brink of major changes seems to fly over them. Then there is the flip side; so many others are so sure the world is coming to end that they don't care about anything else but doom, gloom and revelations. So the major changes that are coming escape them also. There is an apparent lack of balance and people seem to be giving up...I talk to almost a thousand people a day and am saddened by what I hear. There is a certain "silence" amidst the noise generated by empty talk. Words are spoken simply to fill a void. Our society is becoming ruder and more apathetic. People seem to be in a hurry to go nowhere. Too many sheep are being produced. So many people, and this includes children, are on medication for depression and "disorders" that there is a shortage of trained pharmacists. The state of Texas alone claims the need for 1,500 additional pharmacists.This is fact. In light of this information, I have to ask myself; what is wrong with this picture? Unhappy campers are on the rise I guess and a need for some strange sense of order when it comes to children. |

deal too much with the negative, with what is wrong. Why
not try and see positive things, to just touch those
things and make them bloom? Thich Nhat Hanh |
