I have been thinking this for a while but it feels so surreal to have someone come out and say it. You know the whole Maslow's Triangle for the heirarchy of needs and all that? So when you reach that stage of self-realisation right at the top, you realise that sometimes, what you do to help other people really doesn't help as much as you think it will.

So let's just leave everybody to take care of their own crap. We'd all be better off that way.. Perhaps it's time to just zen and chill out and leave people to their own devices. Doom and gloom to you if you can't keep yourself on track.

But alas, as humans, we are born to meddle. That's probably why it's so hard to reach that epitome of enlightenment.

*posted in a wistful, semi-sarcastic, mostly sad tone of voice because, hey. People are made to care about each other and that'll naturally lead to us meddling even if we don't quite want to.
