Why do I not care?
Posted by anonymous in Guilt on Mar 24th, 2011 | 3 commentsI feel terrible, i care about this person very much, and they’ve never done anything bad to me. SO WHY DO I NOT CARE ABOUT THEM WHEN THEIR ABOUT TO DIE? I can’t live with the guilt, it’s killing me!

Perhaps you don`t truly consider death a bad thing? I don`t. It is a natural step that everyone of us will face at some point.
Maybe you’re numb to it. It doesn’t mean you aren’t feeling anything, it means what you feel is so painful, your psyche can’t take it anymore. I’m sorry, I hope things get better!
Within the last year and a half, I lost five family members ranging from my 29 year old cousin who I wasn’t very close to, to my grandfather aka the only male role model in my life who didn’t hurt me in some way. I was very worried about the fact that I didn’t feel anything even though I knew they were going to die beforehand. This may sound weird but you will feel something when that day comes, but it’ll make you realize that you really did care for them. I thought for years that I wouldn’t feel anything if someone I loved died and it scared me, but now I can find solace in knowing that I do care about the people around me, even if I can’t always show it.
