Wave Your Hands Like You Just Don’t Care?
My mind keeps wandering back to the song Word Up! by Cameo. The lyrics, wave your hands like you just don’t care, are drawing me in as I write this.
I don’t care today. My actions are showing how I feel.
And it’s not pretty.
While I say this, I’m not sure it’s the truth. Do I really not care? Or is there something deeper, darker going on?
We all have days where we’re trapped in a funk. We feel like we just don’t care. We don’t want to deal with anyone.
You’ve been there, right? I’m not all alone here, am I?
Good, that’s what I thought.
When we’re in the position of “not caring,” we’re in a dangerous position. Our feelings betray us and tell us it’s okay to act out.
