When told to not take everything so seriously I think I get very angry because I hear "stop caring about life and cruelty and wrongness" and that is not who I am nor who I will ever choose to be. I prefer to care, even if it means to be in pain. For me, apathy is not an option.

I've been accused of being the most serious person someone knows on multiple occasions. The problems in the world are endless and I'm trying to focus on what I stand for instead of what I stand against because I think it makes it easier for others to get behind.

you managing that? Are you finding specific points of what you stand for rather than against and what that process is like for you? I'm taking all advice into consideration that is from the truth of a person rather than the palliative pap smeared over humanity like acid rain. :)

I think it starts by asking yourself what you want to accomplish or what is important to you and then identifying ways in your life to address that. Don't get me wrong, there are many things that need to be stood against, but there can just be more balance.
