Causes

Do you ever feel bombarded with groups wanting the support of some cause? I feel that way, there just seems to be so many people trying to reinvent the wheel out there. Am I to like every one that wants me to support a disease, help the hungry, help the flood victims, help the animals... Not like there could be come really quick and easy solution to these problems? Isn't that what we are always looking for anyways? I have problem X and want solution Z, and I want it to be the simplest, quickest solution, with no regard to the consequences!
Why don't we all just work together, do we not all have the same goals? Is your mission statement not the same as mine? Do you also want to do good for this cause?
And then there are the causes that take advantage of us that don't take the time to see if they are in fact who they say they are and helping who needs to be helped! They only cause more suffering and another excuse to have a cause to put these people in their place! The cycle then can continue.
I don't feel the need to jump on every bandwagon to support what is going on around the world, as some are not actually doing any good. It is generally someone that feels very passionately about it, but can't see anything beyond what they are fighting for and what the consequences could be in the end. I would rather think for myself and not have a mob of people sway me into their mass.
Is one alone all that bad?
Do a little research, put a little effort into what you believe in, because if it is what you believe in, is it not worth more than clicking a button with a thumbs up!?
