Maybe we care because we are afraid of the responsibility/guilt, the kind that makes us feel bad when anything unfortunate or unbearable happened to someone because we did not do the right thing, especially when we were capable or supposed to be able to do something about it. Do we really care about the next person or simply ourselves?


-Not in a bitter tone- Just a thought

It is a Different World

A dialogue between the Mercy series lead, nurse Veronica, and a client who just woke up from a 10-year comatose, Bill:

Bill: [Where are] the towers?

Nurse Veronica: There was this terrorist group that flew high jacked planes into the towers and they fell. Three thousand people died, September 11th, 2001. There has been a war going on ever since. I went there. It was… I wish I could’ve slept through that like you did. Anyway, the whole country freaked out; People were scared in a whole new way. It’s a different world.

[Life like] Change is fast and unpredictable, isn't it?

Against promise
Against peace
Against hope
Against happiness
Against all discouragement there could be."
