emotional indifference - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

Real vampires are male supremacists. They teach one another how to bite and drain the lifeblood from women, to render them weak and unable to defend themselves. This is the victory they seek and this carries the emotionally indifferent stamp of the devil. God said to love. So love, care nurture and protect. Save your "fangs" for those who deserve them.

In a hushed whisper he went on, "You can have the logic of Einstein, yet without the heart of an angel to match it, evil will stalk you all of your days.

Emotional indifference is the blinkers upon the fool.

When I'm feeling triggered the world and everyone it is behind fifty feet of glass. Loving bonds become inaccessible. In this mode I have to take great care not to damage bonds of love, the relationships and people who are everything to my heart and soul. For in time the glass disappears and my love returns. I wish I could stop the triggering, but if I feel unprotected or left to fend for myself it returns - it is survival mode, cold and indifferent. Yet even in these times I am cognisant of my morality. I still make good choices. I can still imagine what the better version of me would want me to do and then carry that out. I can't undo the trauma I've been through, but I can adapt and overcome.
