Caring

Have you ever been in a situation that made you think "If you don't care, why should I care?" I'm sure everyone has.

If you dont care, why should I? or more appropriately, why DO I?
Why should I be bothered to do xxx if the others are bothered??
Do you care that I care? or Do I care that you care?
Maybe I care because God cares? Does God care that I care or not?
or maybe because my conscience wont let me not care?

Why should I be responsible when others arent willing?
Why do I plug the hole of a leaking boat when others created the leak..

Hmm... I wonder what your reaction was...
Did you just not care anymore?
Did you close an eye?
or Did you join the other side and go along with things as they are..

"Lord, what is man that youc are for him,
mortal man, that you keep him in mind;
man, who merely a breath
whose life fades like a shadow?"
Psalm 143(144)
