Right this second there's somebody sitting, thinking just as I am, without a roof over their head, without warmth, without food. Without a computer infront of them. Without opportunities and without hope.
Do they deserve their situation any more than we deserve our comforts and privaleges?
How can we justify doing nothing? Human fucking beings are suffering and all we can talk about is alcohol and entertainment.
I feel selfish. We should all feel selfish for not making other people worse off than ourselves the main priority. I worry about exams, I worry and my weight, I worry about whether I'll achieve my goals and the path along the way. In a way it's not selfish to want to follow your own goals and make the most of all the luck you have been born at random into but in another way I hate myself for not devoting my entire life to helping others. What is the right answer?
I'm a vegetarian, some people don't have the choice. Some people don't have anything to eat at all and right this second there are people starving to death. Can you imagine what that feels like? Can you even begin to fucking imagine?
Fuck consumerism, fuck the 2012 games and fuck our politicians. The state of humanity and its shallow desires is disgusting. We should all be ashamed of ourselves.
