We are the beautiful people. Each one of us is talented, creative, good looking and just smashing. We compliment each other perfectly. We comment on our lives, loves and of course society. But what are we really doing? Are we making a difference? Are we changing lives? Are we ending world hunger? No instead we ponder, on let’s face it, the non-consequential. The state of rentals in the city, favourite movies, local politics, funny video clips, last night’s date, and this morning’s blues. We’re not using our god given privilege to do anything important. The most you can say about us, is that we make the place look pretty (if falzanoot was an art, we would all be Picasso). Me too, I am no better (maybe worse). I am an ex-hippy who exchanged her ideals for a fabulous job in television. I can’t remember the last time I volunteered somewhere, planted a tree, gave to the homeless.
I don’t mean to piss on our parade, and I know this place is just a little fun between making money and maintaining the lifestyle we hold so precious. But now and then it might be advisable to remind everyone (including myself)……. That we are not beautiful, We have put out no fires and saved no lives…… We just happened to be born in the right place at the right time.
(Wouldn’t it be nice of us to give something back? And if you already do, then please accept my apologies, I was talking to them (me) not you.) |

Long love ESCAPISM
your right, I know there are people that give and so I was really speaking to people like me that used to and then somehow stopped for reasons unclear to me now.
so yes, this post was to boost me back to action....and maybe take a few along with me.
היי
אמנם החברה של היום מקדשת את הפרט, יחד עם זאת יש המון אנשים שכן מעורבים ואם לא באופן ישיר אז באופן עקיף, אולי לא מספיק אך אי אפשר להתעלם מהם. הכל מאוד אישי ועניין של מסוגלות ויכולת הכלה. יש אחד שנותן יותר, יש אחד שפחות והכי חשוב שאם את מרגישה לא טוב עם הפאסיביות בתוך התחום הזה; יש הרבה שישמחו לקראתך.
קדימה ובהצלחה!
please accept my apologies
התקבלה....
(לא שאני עושה מספיק....)
Thank you for all this information maybe you should write a post, oh wait a minute you just did in mine....lol
I am happy to hear that I am giving something after all....but I would still like to do more...
and by the way I dont write hebrew, and I am fine with it.
א. אם הג'וב שלך בטלויזיה מתועד ברשויות המס, את משלמת מיסים שעוזרים למדינה לעשות דברים - בין היתר גם לעזור בצורה ממסדית ומקיפה לאוכלוסיות נזקקות. ההומלס שאתן מדברות עליו - יש רשויות רווחה שאמורות לעזור לו.
פגשתי לא מזמן בניקרגואה מישהו עם עמדה מאוד נחרצת נגד קיבוץ נדבות (ובמרכז אמריקה זאת באמת מכה, אף כי קשה מאוד להאשים אותם.). הוא טוען (ולרוב די בצדק) שמתן נדבה לקבצן מעודדת אותו ואחרים להתפרנס בדיוק מזה, לכן כדאי שלאדם כזה תהיה סיבה מספיק טובה (למשל נכות של 4000%) או שיעשה עבורך שירות כלשהוא בכדי שיצדיק את מתן הכסף.

well put it this way....they don't see the 'us'
they only see the 'we' (as in them)
you should have left them a little present outside their door step and used the same argument.
now let's concentrate on helping the needy, and ignoring the horrible.....
so happy you came out of the mail and are here with me and my friends now.
good to be heard...
who would have figured.
the dog pee is a true story. not only did our neighbors allow their dog to pee in the elevator, in the lobby, and in the path leading to the house, but they refused to clean it. their answer was either "prove that she did it" or better yet "no one ever died from it..."
where do you think they stand in the i vs. we dilemma?
there's nothing wrong with feeling good and doing it for yourself because in this case others get something too.
besides I knew you would donate, suits you, generous guy that you are....
now I want to too.....I shall look into it.
I didnt realise that when you would finally quote my friend it would sound so clever and deep. good for you
so can I let my dog pee in the lift or not?
I hope my 'I' joins the us a little every day...and good to finally hear your voice my friend.
I'm glad you feel helping others is important... I always felt like that and I donate some, and feel good about it - so maybe I am realy doing it for myself..? I wonder. Making the best of your life without hurting anyone is quite enough, if u R not doing more. Those who want to - donate and enjoy it too. They get the benefit from sense of "FEEL GOOD" in their life.
somewhere over the past 100 years, during the endless quest for personal freedom and total emancipation, the ever so important we was overthrown by the tyranny of I. not that "i" isn't important in and of itself, but we have embraced it so willingly that we have forgotten that we share this planet/country/neighborhood/building with a few other people. who are they to tell me what to do?
the road to rediscovering our former "us" starts with small gestures, but requires bolder understandings of why we want or need to be an "us". until we figure out why "us" and "i" aren't mutually exclusive, and how we mustn't give up any of our freedoms (expect for the freedom of letting your dog pee in the elevator) just so we can get along, but that we must get along, we are doomed to keep sliding this slippery and dangerous slope...
I am lost for words.....
Don’t mean to sound condescending but not all are alike, some do actually walk about this planet feeling the sorrow of others, some, even more sensitive actually try to block out/ignore that sense and the magnitude and impact it has on their lives where at certain points you can actually touch death…don’t be scared, it all around us and if you are not willing to acknowledge that, well, it awaits you at the end of your life as a completion to this big manifest and show (called "Your life"!) you've been putting on for so long just so when they draw the curtains, he will be there, the light of your life, the 1 who made you run and 'go and get them' the whole time, the 1 that without, we would not be moving for the next 500 years. Well, enough with that, so those people, the ones who block out…just so they can get on with living, them, they are those who make a difference, they are those who manufacture joy and happiness within others, they are those who guide us silently, when things that they are as in being, actually echo in our lives and make us taking other discussions that we would have other wise…they are those that when every1 is talking to the nice and beautiful, they talk to the poor and ugly…they have stripped themselves of society's objects and can no longer be used by that society as an object, they are those who sit alone when every1 else needs company, Einstein said that loneliness is the road to being a genius, developing new eyes…they are those people. (I wasn't talking about any1)
(Yea I guess I do too in small ways....maybe I am not as awful as I think)
but you! you I like....after that lovely dinner you cooked me...no one could say you don't give the needy....hehe
but seriously doing anything for others is doing....and it might not make a difference to many, but it does to a few!
כרגיל, מזדהה עם התוכן שהעלת. כ"כ נכון! ואני? מחזירה יום יום את חובי לחברה בנתינה שלי שגם אם היא קטנה, היא משמעותית.
nothing wrong with that...lol
You are so Useful!
I joined. You are always there with the list, advice, link, help, reccomendation....
carzy about you! your like the human google.
well darling my daughter is only 7 years old
I liked your explination, it's very thought out and correct.
I know in the UK, we give to charity almost every month, the tv is full of adverts to encourage people to give to different groups....and companies give to charity.
It seems the capitalist system must include within it some charity work....
but even if we just help those around us more....it's a start....no?
That's the thing...its not that I don't want to give back....I am just so used to thinking about only me and my own. You lose the reality that really is....your so caught up in your own 'problems'.....that are not important in comparision.
You daughter is still living, seeing, she is not tainted.
את הולכת ברחוב, את רואה קבצן, חולפת על פניו.
הבת שלי ישר רוצה לתת לא כסף . היא עדיין לא נאטמה.
you see what I mean ?
מציאות עגומה. גם אני חושבת כך לעיתים.
