If you knew you could make a difference would you?

If you think about it, maybe and maybe not, you're pretty lucky. And if you think you are, could you make a difference.Any small gesture, whether great or small, if you can, try to do it, it could make a difference, whether it's for one day or much longer.

Personally, I'm too self-concerned, but now and then, it's great to do something good for anybody, and realize you made a little difference.

You’ve got to be kidding me. I’ve been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more as anyone can. Can you really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like. It’s just common sense.

I love when people speak stupid on the internet. Yes despite the overwhelming feeling of apathy that envelops me right now, course I would even if it was just a difference to one person.

You've just made a bus load of people late, it's not that easy make a positive differance, try again.

Deffo.
There's another thread on here tonight about firing guns.

If I could line Bertie, Fitzpatrick, Cowan, Drumm, Neary, Gilmore, Kenny, Noonan, Harney and Burton up on a wall, I'd have a go at the gun version of ten green bottles. And that would be only be the first verse. . .

The trials and tribulations of the dublin bus passenger

When you think about it statistically, the most fortunate in terms of avoiding poverty and achieving a level of personal wealth almost inconceivable to billions of human beings are (i) white (ii) male (iii) middle class (iv) born in Europe, Australia, North America or of Caucasian descent living elsewhere.

Those of us who qualify for all of the above must count ourselves extremely lucky. In terms of being born into a favourable position, we hit the jackpot when we were born.

I don't know the exact figure, but surely we cannot be more than about 250 million in a world of 7 billion who fit into this category.

I think most of us would consider that any such preset preferential treatment afforded to white, western, middle class (and usually male) children is wrong, and that the notion of one child being set up for a superior quality of life as his birthright is the antithesis of equality. And if we believe in tackling inequality, we have a duty to promote and engage with the cause of those who were born into a different set of circumstances to their later detriment.

I spend the greater part of my life worrying about other people.

And when that worry is particularly intense I usually end up resolved to help them. I'm talking about my immediate family members. For instance I have resolved myself to stay in Ireland and live close by my father, as I fear he will not live long past 70, and that he will be lonely, very lonely, once he retires. I can't let that happen. He may die before 70, but I can't allow him to be lonely.

Even strangers I spend quite a while helping and I find it very hard, very very hard, to walk by people, like the homeless, who may need help.

No. I'd make a poo and throw it at them like an angry monkey.

My tendency is to help people i know and like and not so much strangers. I'm very sceptical about the true effectiveness of practically all organised charities for example - they may well have good intentions but isn't that what the road to hell is paved with, also corruption exists everywhere and who monitors where all that money really goes - a huge proportion ends up either in someone like Mary Davis' bank account as wages and "legitimate" expenses, or to pay the fees of some chuggers agency and so on or else simply in the pockets of the people shaking buckets at you as you leave the shops. I've robbed those buckets myself when i was younger!!
I don't trust any of them - so i don't give any of them money. Any help i have to give, financial or labour or whatever, will be given directly to someone i know could use it.

If I see someone running for a bus, I help them by removing the uncertainty of whether they're going to make it or not, and trip them up.
