A Song for 2024

So many people (including therapists) have told me that I can't "worry about the world's problems". And I get it, if we did that all day, everyday, we'd be constantly depressed. But I believe that completely tuning it out is the wrong thing as well. If we never take the time to experience the pain of others, especially strangers, we will never learn how to love properly. And without people who worry about the world's problems, we'd never see change. I believe in a world where humans don't regularly turn away from pain for self-preservation. But in order for that to happen, we need to be well taken care of by our governing bodies, and capitalism is not the way.
