As we are getting more & more civilised we are becoming more & more self centered and losing sense of humanity. Are we heading towards good?scared

I could probably declare myself "non-important" because my entire family passed-away and I am all alone now. (My husband and both my sons passed-away. And pretty much everyone else in my family died too.)...I could take everything "personally." I could internalize all the deaths as a sign that I wasn't very important to my loved ones...I'm not saying that I've never had these types of feelings. (Grief involves working-through a whole gamut of thoughts and feelings and emotions!)...But I know it's not healthy for me to base my worth and value on "who is here" and "who isn't" and "stop there!"...I've always felt that it was my job to gain a sense of my own "worth" whether I'm in a love relationship or not. (Whether I'm surrounded by friends or not!)...And whether I'm accomplishing "major things" in life or not! (Etc.)...I try to stay modest and humble. I don't want to get a "puffed-up head" about anything I do or don't do in life. But I don't want to "shortchange" or "downgrade" myself either... I don't want to be mean and unfair to myself when I know "darn-well" that I deserve a pat on the back for facing my fears or working day and night to finish a job etc.. How do you feel about it? Thanks!
I was taught to do my duty wiithout bothering about result; I try to remain stoic though I faulter often. May God bless you! flowerforyou

IMHO I may not be important in some grand way but it the little ways, the little needs people have I think my value adds up.

The remark the person said about not paying bills is true. You do find out how much people depend on their little piece of you adds to their stream.

Like in here if you don't post what are we all going to do for input? It adds up.

LOL that is my 2cents worth on the subject.

Now tell me who is collecting the pennies.
I get motivated & feel a little bit morè important.
IMHO ?drinks

I'm only important in my little world.... but hey, I can live with that bigsmile
Sometimes we don't know how important we are for others ; once we realise it we get some great purpose of living. :banana:

I don't feel important; I just exist and that does not make me important.
Some people create false impression to make themselves more important; they are deceiving not only themselves but also others. You will feel important if you think of others who need you.(Atleast it works for me) explode

I am totally important to the people who love me - as they are to me. I must be at least a little important at work cause they sure get unhappy when I call off. We are all important in some ways, many more ways than most of us think about. Being important doesn't necessarily mean being good at something or things but having skills we can use and share does count for self esteem, giving back and paying it forward.
Happy to meet you after a long gap. You are important to me also! (without any bad intention) smile2

Well everyone here has been important to me, even the ones I don't know. Posting in these forums have helped me get through a long 3 year divorce....After being married for 13 years it was hard being alone with no companion. but true my kids are present but sometimes I needed to have adult conversations and not be dating. SO THERE> You all important to me. Even the strangers who participated in the forums i posted in.
The more we face the problem the more we learn about the life!:thumbsup:

You may not be very important to some one but it doesn't mean you are not important. You are also important! Why do you feel yourself important?think

Why do women talk more?
(I am not telling it is bad or good)smile2

Look who's talking or typingpitchfork

Good observation. But I think more scientific would be if you consider total response per year of man & woman. grumble

Mother. It is a challenge and a blessing. It makes me laugh and sometimes cry. It is a different experience with each child. I know it is the one thing I do in life that I will always be appreciated and I will never lose the job. It is very hard work for a few years but the retirement benefits are the best in the world!
I often wonder why do step mothers differ so vastly from real mother? (with due respect to all step/real mothers) love

A selfish man/woman will remain friend (?) so long there is chance of material gain.
(In my opinion) frown


I have selfish friends and they don't ask anything from me unless you think asking someone to talk to you is considered material gain.
In general selfish means what I think who bothers only about himself/herself (I am not telling that he/she is bad or somethìng like that).
Once he/she has to suffer loss, definitely he/she will forget of friendshìp. (As per me)
I don't think your friends are selfish rather a well wisher of you. Good luck for you & your friends. :drinks


I guess I worded that wrong. I do indeed have selfish friends but I give them the benifit of the doubt. People don't wake up one day and become selfish; they have gone through something bad. I am considered selfish because I didn't have kids or get married but ironically its the religous types that say I am selfish. I do put my needs first and if that makes me selfish so be it. I do charity drives; volunteer work with kids; do sand bagging, built houses for those destroyed in a hurricane; tell people at Christmas to give money to the poor rather than buy me a gift; and keep an open door/ear to anyone that needs it; but some still say I am selfish; however they don't know I do these things. So; I don't judge anyone that others think are selfish as there are things people just don't know about them.
If what you told that is truth, I salute you from my heart. Some people help others for getting fame; others do it for doing something good. Both are O.K but 2nd catagory is a little bit more creditable.(As per me)
A selfish (?) like you is far better than a so called civilised/intelligent(idiot) person.
I wish I were also selfish like you! :thumbsup:
