One simple trick for a happier life that these charities don't want you to know about. Read this before it gets taken down! - I no longer care abou the myriad of issues that I am supposed to care about whether it is global warming, some foreign war, someone being offended, drama tornados at the centre of some acquaintances life or something said online. I no longer care about whether something is 'fair' or not or whether something that occured in the past was prejudiced against some group or other. What DO I care about? Me, myself and I. Not even family. Family has long since passed being something I should care about. My own immediate family, yes, maybe...
As soon as an advert comes on for a charity it is muted. As soom as someone starts talking about some political issue my eyes glaze over and I start obviously yawning. I am reasonably polite, I still lend people things. I will pass the time of day. I just no longer care much about anything. Who or what helped me reach this conclusion? Life experience and insider knowledge into the dark arts of emotional manipulation...
More to come where I talk about those manipulative daytime TV ads...
