Reflections on the Last Lecture

Well, that made me feel like more of a worthless sack of shit than I already was.

I am of the belief that for a lot of issues, you cannot help other people, they have to choose to help themselves.  That doesn't mean that you shouldn't be nice, supportive, compassionate or what have you, but that ultimately it is up to the individual to choose to take any of that to heart and make the choice every day to help themselves.

I am not in a place right now where I want to help myself very much.  I kind of want to just want to give up, go home, and forget.  So I wasn't very receptive to what Dr. Pausch was preaching, to say the least.
