Thinking: maybe it's good to be inconsiderate of others to the extent that you don't know what they are going to; to the extent that you don't know what pain they're having.
What is the shut off point of all of this, when is it supposed to be like that, when should we ignore what people are going through?
Is inconsiderate just sloppiness on the authentic, actualized, individual?
Like: if someone is absurdly ignorant of someone else's needs (inconsiderate), isn't that just a commentary on the situation in the first place.
The second person thinks that the other person should be considering him. Isn't this a flaw in the second person, to believe that the first person should be doing something for the second person?
The answer is sort of, sort of, sort of.
Lately I've been thinking that someone who is selfish is like this inconsiderate person above.
What situation are you in to be considered inconsiderate? What situation are you in to be considered selfish?
If someone is locked in their basement making peanut inventions to save the economy of the southern United States, like George Washington Carver, isn't that a good thing? It's not a situation where he could be considered inconsiderate.
