When you hear about people fighting for and even dying for a deserving cause, do you think of what you are not doing with your life?

While the brave Ukrainian people are fighting for their freedom against Putin's aggression... what have I ever done to really make a difference? :/ I don't know how to make those changes...

Don't be daft.

I think of pathetic Ukrainian people fighting a war they didn't need to start. All for the Wests benefit. Did they learn nothing from Saddam, Qaddafi, Osama, Pinochet, Assad and all others who the West "helped," and then ended up demonising in the end?

The West wants more and more for less and less. Ukraine is just the latest game and expect things to get worse, not better, for it. How much has any country improved after the USA and cohorts have "intervened?"

As for your assertion. Every wannabe hero dreams of dying for a deserving cause. It's plot 101 in most peoples lives and movies. But the reality is that you can only do so much in a day, and you've no guarantee you will wake up tomorrow. So pick and choose your best causes, over too much of others.

You'll also find people will take less advantage of you to boot.

They're fighting for their country, not their freedom; dying for a government that forces you into battle slavery isn't what I would call brave OR deserving.

Being a hero is rewarding to your self confidence but it’s also a heavy obligation. It’s why doctors get so much respect, most people admire them but do not want to make the same sacrifice because it’s too hard for them.

Nope, that's their business and has no meaning to me

What now?
