The matter of giving a damn.

Don't know why I give a damn . About anything. Life might be a lot easier. If I didn't give a damn. Then I could just idle away my life. Without fretting. Without getting involved in so many political and social issues and causes. If I didn't give a damn. I'd not follow world events and happenings. Knowing I have no control over most stuff anyway. Unfortunately, I'm hooked. I really do give a damn. About all sorts of things. But when I go to bed at night, I pretend that I don't give a damn. About anything. Helps me fall asleep.  With a clear and peaceful mind. --Jim Broede
