Day 131

People will not look to change the suffering they do not feel – that’s what I learned today 🙁

It’s 7: 14 PM on day 131 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself bread and egg for breakfast,   email the Firstgiving team – I wanted to get my campaign extended to raise more money for The Water Project 🙂 –  email The Water Project – I couldn’t find the video links I needed for the water party I’m planning – hopefully they’ll get back to by Monday  🙂 – feed myself rice and curry  for lunch,   tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign for a few hours –no donations were made today, but I did get listed under the environmental section of the Groovy News Network  – Thanks  Kate 🙂 –   exercise for 10 minutes and feed myself rice and curry  for dinner.

Today I asked this guy on Twitter – I won’t mention his name –   to organize a water party and donate the proceeds to my campaign and a few minutes later he replied back saying I don’t even know you and as I read that I thought to myself do you need to know someone to help them and in that moment I realized that the fundamental problem with today’s society is its inability to feel empathy. Are you able to put yourself in someone else’s shoes? 🙂
