It is, by nature a very selfish thing to think inwards all the time, but the truth is, that’s what we do, it’s what our brains,our minds our souls demand.
Always searching for a reason to feel happy on a daily basis, to have hopes and fears for our futures, our intelligence won’t leave us alone, our brains torture us with these thoughts.
Some people go through life oblivious to these thoughts, these kind of people are more selfish and ‘inward’ than others, they have no empathy or sympathy for others, life is just a big game for them.
Is this the way we do it? is this how we get rid of our daily thoughts of hope and fear?….be selfish?…I say not, the way to live on a daily basis without these fears is to take each day as it comes, take it in your stride, fight, and battle your way through life, and at the same time think about other people less fortunate than yourself, have sympathy, have understanding,love, care, all the ‘good’ things about us, share everything, share your thoughts on life…….
but remember……care for your fellow humans, never be selfish or think inwards all the time…….and
let’s be careful out there
