People don’t care about you,
and if ever it seems that way
it is only because
everyone thinks that way,
that people care about them,
but the truth is they don’t.
People don’t care about you,
they care about themselves,
and thank God that they do.
For example think otherwise;
for example say otherwise;
for example say to me that
people do care about me,
(that means I am wrong.)
Will you do that for me,
or will you do that for you?
For example don’t tell me;
for example bite your lip;
for example let me think
as however I wish that,
people don’t care about me.
Will you do that, will you say,
nothing to me and if so,
will it be for peace’s sake,
will it be for your own sake,
or will it be for my own?
Or will whatever you do—
what you say or you don’t,
what you think or you don’t,
if you care or you don’t,
will it be for a they—
whoever they are?
If I’m found now an ass,
or whatever else bad,
is the determination for me
for punishment’s sake,
or is it for you
for the sake of your comfort?
Or does truth fall elsewhere,
somewhere in the gray,
somewhere I’ve missed?
Or am I just so far off base,
it’s not an issue of colors?
People don’t care about you.

It’s an interesting argument. Any response to it will be self serving. Nice work. x
thanks, Sabiscuit.
i care
i care about me.
that makes at least 2 of us!
I disagree.
you’re entitled to one mistake every now & then lol
lol, I truly do believe this. I don’t think people are evil, that we need to be controlled, I’m not Machiavelli, but i do think we’re selfish. But yes, we are all entitled to our opinions, Erin.
ok then i’ll believe it too
Errin, I hope you believe whatever you wish. When it comes to sweeping life meaning philosophies, who’s to say. Personal freedom, to me, is paramount. which IMO goes hand in hand with selfish.
here’s a little story..yesterday,i was thinking people don’t care about anything but what they want right now.they can’t wait 30 seconds for someone to walk thru the boardwalk ..no manners like 90%
yeah it’s like mindfulness but not, like they’re in the moment but not. immediate gains and stuff. inconsiderate.
yes.i always look & see if anyone is coming or going & let them go 1st b/c i’m so slow.
back in 15 minutes (cookie machine stretch)
where it can seem sticky is how is that ensured for all if all are selfish, but that is where I think of concepts like Karma, something which i think is very practical not mystical. Karma is basically what comes around goes around, so it’s in one’s best interest to be good which is IMO selfish. But who knows.
you know
if I want you to believe anything Errin, it’s that I stand by my words.
okay:i am sitting by your words,if that’s okay
i don’t know what that means.
i was just being silly. u said stand & i said i’ll sit by your words, (b/c i’m tired & sitting)
cool.
cool
i understand
magnificent put up, very informative. I’m wondering why the other specialists of this sector do not understand this.
You must proceed your writing. I am sure, you
have a great readers’ base already!

If you weren’t spam, Lake Shelbyville, I’d give you a piece of my mind.
Definitely believe that which you said. Your favourite reason appeared
to be at the internet the simplest factor to have in mind
of. I say to you, I definitely get irked while people
consider issues that they plainly don’t realize about.
You controlled to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the
whole thing without having side-effects , people can take a signal.
Will probably be back to get more. Thank you
You’re welcome
