A-PATHETIC

Wikipedia says that Apathy (also called perfunctoriness) is a lack of feeling, emotion, interest, and concern. Apathy is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern, excitement, motivation, and/or passion. An apathetic individual has an absence of interest in or concern about emotional, social, spiritual, philosophical and/or physical life and the world.

Dictionary.com says that the adjective pathetic means: causing or evoking pity, sympathetic sadness, sorrow, etc.; pitiful; pitiable. Affecting or moving the feelings. Pertaining to or caused by the feelings. Miserably or contemptibly inadequate.

My project about apathy could be regarded as pathetic, considering the fact that I am lacking excitement and motivation in order to ever complete it. This does not concern me.

In fact, I can’t be bothered to continue writing about it.
