Subject:Do what you do
My Lj (and melo friend as well) shinywen posted an FO entry today which was a link to an excellent read about medical care in America.

Aside from eliciting a comment or two from me concerning the subject at hand, after I was finished reading and offering my input, the whole experience caused me to realise just why I believe that people on the internet need desperately to get outside their own heads once in awhile and look around at the world to see that they are not the be-all and end-all of existence.

As I mentioned previously in my own FO post (which got a lot of positive feedback at Lj) concerning a hassle I just recently had with an Lj user who fills pages and pages of her journal with her daily minutia, there is a whole universe of truth, beauty, talent, creativity and yes, even outrage, to look upon on the wide world of the web.

I do enjoy reading about people's lives, their triumphs, failures, trials and tribulations. But sometimes you would just like to shake them and say, 'Look OUTWARD for a minute. What do you see?'
