^^ My attitude it's the normal (philosophical) attitude of viewing life. Yours and Abu Salman's is the "remote control" one. One can't fix every problem in the world and worry himself sick about them. Fix what you can and leave the rest to fix themselves. Therein lies peace of mind. Now open that rock above your neck and let some of this wisdom in. :D

 

Heh@Norf..my eldest has gone on a school trip for a week. It's her second day away from hom (EVER) and I keep wandring how she's coping. I expect her to cling to me like a chewing gum to a shoe, on her return on Friday. :D

My kind of worrying has to do with my idealist wishful thinking that people must be rational and acting on information; it's clearer now that they seldom bother, act more on impulses, peer pressure etc.

I was very sentimental and compassionate as a kid too, some say it's a sign of giftedness (along with curiosity etc).

 

Well, apart from being irritated with how irrational and ignorance preferring we tend to be (too much suffering preventable with a bit of cautiousness and research), or sheer caring and attachment (people are what matters, can not forget someone), there is this partly selfish motive.

 

Since my happiest moments were as a teen surrounded by some relatives and acquaintances, my thinking goes that preserving them as before may re-enact those nostalgic moments or at least keep the possibility of ersatz innocent moments ("happiness is the past").

I was nostalgic even back then, though much less so, and this sentimentality seems foreign to my more pragmatic siblings.

To my defense, it's true that blissful innocence and merriness is much harder when fully informed about the countless cruel ways this world operates and its constant risks of all sorts, when grown up and disillusioned on many fronts.

 

At least, back then, I could pretend that with knowledge and some preaching, things will improve (no more destitute crowds, patients etc) but it's as if some things get worse even if others improve and nobody cares much about suffering or logic, what works and getting informed thoroughly.

Thus, some optimism and less sentimentality would helps me a lot but it's so uncoherent with my nature that I just often envy the aloofness and optimism levels of others...

You need to be less of a sponge absorbing the negativity on your periphery and realise you can't save the whole world, just focus on those you can help.
