The Actual Pains Of Deliberately Not Caring Anymore


Every passing minute, hour, day, week or year brings about the surprising element we never anticipated (of course you don’t expect to know surprises ahead of time).

Normally, we are more focused about how to conquer than to survive. Why so? This may be partly attributable to the fact that survival is a must whilst domineering is seen as an interim necessity.

Even though I might not be making sense so far, I am overly convinced that you are reading my mind from where I sit just behind my writing pad and the innocent stroke of my sorry pen.

Lemme just go back to the caption I gave to this piece before I continue. Alright! The pain of deliberately not caring any longer, right? The feeling of not sweating over petty stuff that used to be a headache for us some years back is what I’m desperately trying to write about. In life, disappointments teach us wonderful lessons that can never be learnt within the confines of any institution on this planet EARTH!


After series of disappointments in life — from partners, bosses, colleagues, parents and what have you, we learn to become independent (whether we fail or otherwise). The normal feeling could be to shamefully disappoint yourself rather than been disappointed by someone else. Logically, disappointing yourself makes sense since it stays with your sorry áss as compared to external disappointment that ends up spreading around the workplaces, schools, denominations, neighborhood and so forth.

When the situation grows more helplessly, we, subsequently resort to emotional stampede (did I just make up this word?…lol). Whatever that word means, all that I’m trying to tell you the reader of this piece is that, when we continually become disappointed we then stop caring for others since no one had cared for us when we needed it most! After all, some people even struggle to care for themselves and not to talk of caring for others. To most people, the goal in life becomes more of survival than impacting.

Did I make enough sense?
