Apathy

THE THREE-HEADED MAN discusses, "I don't wanna..."

Phreddie remembers bumper stickers -- "Just Say No Apathy"

They ask, "Is doing the enemy of apathy?"

Jimmy questions the relationship between apathy and depression. What are remedies for apathy? Inner tasks and outer tasks -- what others can see can be used as motivation.

Jimmy recalls something his father said, "Be good to yourself." Jimmy continues by saying not getting stuff done is self-torture.

Is apathy cheating yourself? "So much to do, so much to do," says Jazzy.

"Little by little," says Phreddie. He continues by saying, "breathe in the good stuff."

Jimmy compares sadness and apathy, and he says, "sadness is legitimate."

Apathy in the now. "if not now? when?"

Fred M Schill

I like to do. I like to make things. And, I like telling stories. I tell stories to myself and to others.

First, a short biography, which is, of course, is a story. I was born in Cleveland, played sports, and attended university. Later, after a few years in the radio business, I returned to university to study education and literature.

With a teaching certificate in my file folder, I began working in high schools, first as a strike-breaking scab substitute teacher in Cleveland's far suburbs, and then in Chicago, mostly in private high schools.

Cleveland and Chicago. My two main towns, and I escaped them both. Presently, I live in a tiny, isolated, mountain village in Spain. I am reluctant to write the name of the town because I don't like tourists. When the tourists arrive, they look at me as if I am an animal in a zoo.
