Who Cares? - 08-23-2007, 01:54 AM

"There is no 'they'."

('Make 7! Up Yours!')

If there is a 'they', they aren't doing it.

If they are doing it, they aren't doing it on purpose.

If they're doing it on purpose, they're only doing it for the money.

If they're doing it for the money, there's nothing you can do about it.

Nobody cares.

It doesn't make any difference.

And, one more thing:

I am not into denial.

Thanks Rascal,interesting notion,I lived for many years blaming "they" who made me do it! Not until I managed to grasp the concept of personal responsibilty,did I realize that all
I was doing was making excuses for myself,and my behavior,by blaming,people,places,
and things,for my wilful actions.

We all need to care,and then accept responsibilty for our actions.




regards michael.


Humilty,coupled with boldness,surprises truth to
reveal herself?

On the other hand, Michael, are you willing to accept responsibility for chaos and turbulence producing actions of others?

Always good to hear from you,
