everyone's been talking about the 2 year old toddler.
reminds me of the time when i witnessed a dog being hit by a car, and nobody (other than this kind man after asking a few people) wanted to help me to carry its body to the side of the road so it won't get run over by any other cars.
reminds me of the times when i myself felt too tired to get a student down to talk to her even after hearing that she's been cutting herself.
issit really something that's only happening now? or is it more a matter of apathy rearing its ugly head in the media.
how many people will get shaken by this and then subsequently go on not to continue in their apathy towards the various things in society today?

From 'The Gift of Therapy' by Yalom:
"Those who are cradlers of secrets are granted a clarifying lens through which to view the world - a view with less distortion, denial, and illusion, a view of the way things really are."
