TheSilentEmpath, No, I don't think it makes us lose the importance of humanity as a whole. I know that I have sent goods to a single mother in Russia to help her out for numerous years. At this time I am helping some folks in the Philippines; and that is a impoverished place in the world as you likely know. There are tens of thousands of people who have altruistic minds and concerns for the earth's populace and do as much or more than I do.

SilentEmpath, there has never been nor will there ever be a JUST WORLD. I believe you are laboring your mind with this as you know at easy glance this is not reality. You may have thought so at one time; just as I had in my youth....but it's false to think we can live in a just and perfect world. Mankind will always mess with that. Within my faith I see earth as a testing ground for eternity.

As to your personal life, I'm sorry that you feel the lack of your importance as to yourself. I'm sorry you have so little in the way of support from others. I am not here to change your mind, just tell you my view on what your concerns are. As I have said in my earlier post, I have felt most of what you mentioned, but I have grown much older now, and have a different perspective. Good luck to you, I hope that you can find some peace with this for and in yourself. Hugs, bj
