Well, do you? And if you don\u2019t does that make you a bad person?<\/p>\n

I spend a lot of time in the social media world where \u201ccaring\u201d and \u201chelping\u201d is the \u201cBIG THING\u201d, but what I sense is that much of the caring and helping is not genuine. I\u2019m not trying to knock anyone, it\u2019s just an observation; my belief is that the same thing occurs offline too.<\/p>\n

So the question is, if you don\u2019t care, is that okay? I say yes. We can\u2019t ALL care about EVERYTHING, it\u2019s just not possible. And to be honest, if I have a question or I need help, I would prefer that the people with passion about the subject come forward and the people that could careless stay silent.<\/p>\n

From the other side, I love jumping in to help people when it comes to stuff I know or am familiar with, and I would say that comes across to people in the social media realm as well as offline. I genuinely do give a damn when it comes to being able to properly care, help, or guide someone\u2026but you can\u2019t get upset if you approach someone, ask for help, and they turn you down; it is probably in your best interest!<\/p>\n

Caring and helping, I believe are expected by people but do you really want \u201cfake\u201d help? I don\u2019t, I want someone who is in it because they breathe it, they feel it; there is nothing else they\u2019d rather do right than other than help.<\/p>\n

My takeaways, for those of you that get pissed when someone does not help, calm down because it is probably for the best. And for those that find themselves not giving a damn in a certain instance, no worries, your time of helping someone and caring are right around the corner.<\/p>\n

So goes life, cheers!<\/p>\n
