I Don't Care, I Do.



The reason you think you don’t care is because you do!

There is always a fundamental discourse at every spill-over point, the explosion, the point where the mind lets loose and spills it. The river doesn’t spill over unless it is flooded. You don’t care because you say you don’t.  You say it not because you mean it but because you cannot take it in the state it is in, in the state you are in.

Who asked you whether you care? I bet no one (sorry). You make the strides up the stairs a step at a time, one reason, a question, and expressed opinion, a concern; the game of the mind. Then it gets to the place where reasons are scarce, where questions are much. The mind has its capacity, the much it can take and when it takes it all, when the mind can’t take one more. No more space for this one state, the spillover, the point where the mind does not want to think that what it has taken time to think about and build up confidence on is working away rather than right.

How many relationships end with this infamous ‘I don’t care’ tagline and the two pre-relatees spend their bedtimes thinking themselves how they could have made it work?

How many parents come to the point of verbalizing that they don’t care when their kids run them down the extreme lane yet even then, they can’t do what they say, they care.

How many employees come to the point when things are hard, when deadlines aren’t met, they wanna quit, yet they still come back early the next day to work?

1 Peter 5:7


Next time you feel like saying you don’t care, take a deep breath and say it. Say it out loud for you to hear it.

‘I care. I do!’ Whatever!
