I really am taking alot of things for granted.

And I'm also very selfish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Imagine this scenario.

There are 2 travellers in the desert. They have gone without food or water for 2 days, and are going to die soon if they don't find an oasis.

After travelling for some time, the sky is darkening, so they break camp. However, one of the travellers, knowing that they will probably die in the next few days if they carry on like this, continues to search for an oasis. The 2nd traveller has given up hope, and is weeping in self-pity in their tents.

After walking for a while, the 1st traveller finds the oasis, and runs towards it in happiness. he drinks the water there and is happy that he found the 'life-saving' oasis. However, he convieniently forgets about the 2nd traveller in his enjoyment and happiness, and slowly, the 2nd traveller dies...

I know my story has totally no logic, but it does has an inner meaning. each character represents a certain type of people... and this story has to do with apathy and selfishness.

When you are selfish, you hoard things for yourself, instead of considering other people. 'things' can be anything; from material objects to intangible things.

I am indeed very selfish...
