So, I stayed up late and finished The Glass Castle last night. All I can say is "wow". I have read a lot of books, but this one is in a league of its own. Really. It got me really thinking about how people interact with each other. Lifting them up only to let them down. How can people do that to each other so constantly?
I wish I could save the world. Not in some super hero sort of way, just in the small things. I wish I could love all the children who have no one to love them, feed all the people who cannot feed themselves and give something to those who have nothing to offer in return. Sadly, most of the time, I cannot even take care of myself. I don't know how those who are honestly alone in this world do it. I just think that would be a very lonely existence. No family. No friends. No one.
I am not saying that I have other people picking up my messes and literally taking care of me. But, I do have this whole support system of the most amazing people. My grandparents, my fiancee', my mom, my sisters, my friends. Without them there to cheer me on, share in my happiness and hold my hand through the bad times what we be the point?
