Every day, I see something that fucking breaks my heart. People are always suffering somewhere, whether it's people in Missouri who got flooded out, villagers starving to death in the latest African famine in a country so dysfunctional that food can't get in, or some young kid who just died in a stupid accident.
I just want things to get better for them. I don't know how things will get better for them. The few things that I know I can do to try to help seem so feeble and pointless.
Mostly, I just want other people to stop suffering so that I can stop feeling bad about them suffering. Maybe that's human nature, maybe I'm especially petty, but whichever, that fucking breaks my heart too.
