I Have To Say It

there is something that's bothering me something I've heard all day "you shouldn't care what others think about! what you do or what you say" I can't help but care about what people say and do "you shouldn't care about them if they don't care about you" where is the humanity in that? isn't that what family and friends are for? to always be there for you when you can't take it anymore? I try to see the best in people, but I get disappointed in the end "so stop getting your hopes up, just don't care!" but you are wrong my friend this can't be how it really is! is there any hope at all? am I really supposed to turn by back and not help them when they fall? I'm not wired that way it's not how I think I can't "not care" when they open their mouths to speak I can't close my mind to everything, what people do or say isn't that all that matters at the end of the day? so yes I will still call all the time and maybe get on their nerves because I know I love them and that's what they deserve I may get disappointed all the time but that only means I care and it means that no matter what I'll always be there
