I Literally Remember You Everyday And Talk To You I'm Sorry You Don't Have Telepathy To Know That - Tumblr Posts

Today I was going on an impromptu visit to my friend's house who has been very sick lately and while I was on my way, sitting behind my father on the scooty, I saw a stray dog passing by. He had his whole tongue out and I thought maybe there was some health issue that caused it. I only saw him in the passing but I felt sad for not being able to help him out and then it led me to thinking about the animals that are way worse than him, living on streets with pain and trauma and then there people whose lives are full of pain and trauma too and I just couldn't do anything to change the fact and it then led me into thinking how much better am I than the person who is oblivious to these sufferings? I am doing nothing just like the oblivious people. How much value does just knowing and being aware while doing nothing holds? And then it led me into thinking of having this conversation with one of my friends and I know they'd tell me "Something better than nothing." and I'd think "For how long tho?" but I know they'd reply saying "You won't always stay on the side watching silently. One day you'll get a chance to do something and you'd do it because you know and that'll make a change, no matter how small. An oblivious unaware person won't be able to do that because they don't know." And I felt okay then. Maybe only for a bit but something better than nothing right? It must hold some meaning right?
