This is turning into a pedantic argument. I’m fine entertaining the nuance of language if your mind is open as well and you aren’t just trying to discuss me to death.

I specifically mentioned __this thread__. I generally have an open ear to other perspectives, but just like my sympathy, my patience is limited (particularly in narrow contexts). You may be a genuine soul, but you are mistaken if you think sympathy or empathy don’t take energy. Surely you don’t think it is possible for humans to have endless energy. Let’s not throw good energy after bad. If we spend our energy on things that don’t benefit others, we are not spending it on somethings that matters.

Maybe we just have 2 different philosophies of life and you are more likely to walk in a labyrinth these days than I am. Once upon a time, I would’ve been beside you, but life has led me to make different decisions.
