A difficult decision
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. Life for quite a while has been going--well, for the most part, apart from the occasional emotional bump--really well, and I've been able to live a rather calm life. I've got college to deal with, I have friends, I have a family that I can usually get along with. I consider myself lucky. In that way, I'm a lot like tons of other people out there. But what if that suddenly got taken away? What would happen if my life got turned upside down, if I lost what mattered most to me, family and friends? I'd be lost, I really wouldn't know what to do.
I don't want to see someone else go through that, even if I don't know that person, even if we've never met.
I know, I know, at least one person is gonna say that I'm being irresponsible, but I have obligations in other places too, you know. And I'm not about to sit around acting like nothing is happening when I can help. It would eat me alive. When those of you are shipping out to Mexico to play crowd control, count me in. I'll do everything in my power to help, no matter what.
The moment anyone finds out a way to get down there and can include an extra person (and unusually large plush doll), please please PLEASE leave me a message pronto. Thanks a bunch.
