I am feeling contemplative, desirous of achieving things but first needing to surmount an overwhelming sense of inertia, opinionated in a soapbox-y kind of way, and indulgent in a pop-culture kind of way.
So where does that leave you, little blog? Ooh, let me give you an abbreviated rant. (This would be a bit less opaque if I gave specific situations, but I don't mind the vagueness right now. And since I'm pretty sure no one else is reading this, I win re: vague blog posts that don't make sense to anyone but me!)
It seems society is trending so much toward "it's not my business/respect others' decisions/don't get involved" that we are rapidly losing a valuable moral majority. We are tossing aside a collective moral compass and sense of outrage over transgressions when we choose to ignore unsavory decisions/actions, allow individuals to destroy their lives' and the lives of those who love them, and maintain a delusional status quo where everyone is civil and polite and advanced and so accepting and everyone will always like them...
What I'm saying is: if you know of something wrong, you have a moral imperative to address that. Child abuse. Adultery. ET AL. What I'm saying is: GET IN OTHER PEOPLE'S BUSINESS. No one can hold you in the wrong for doing what's right. In fact, they should thank you.
