Caring

Have you ever wanted to stop caring about something or someone?

You ignore, you divert your attention, you do everything in your power to stop caring. You even tell yourself and others repeatedly, “I don’t care.”

But you do. Why fight it, really?

If you care, care. There’s nothing I find morally wrong about caring. But which is worse: the damage you cause yourself by denying that you care and forcing yourself not to care or the damage you cause yourself by remaining open and honest and caring even if it hurts?

I care.

So shoot me.
