For all the Sturm und Drang we create when you boil it all down it is a very tepid brew. We are so much less than we think we are. So much self-imputed self-importance that is untrue. Who was the first conceited idiot to speculate otherwise I wonder?

Obsessing fantasizing embracing those who believe with him that he is in grave jeopardy and the enemies list is growing larger in number. He dismisses or fires those who disagree with him because he cannot imagine why his "success" isn't the focus of everyone everywhere all the time because everyone wants to take it away from him. If you ridicule his obsession or deny its existence you become an enemy. His world of necessity will always be that way. That is why he is a one-dimensional person. He is his own be-all and end-all and life for him will always be dangerous and treacherous because he works so hard to insure it. It is what he needs to feel necessary substantive worthwhile. The more he tries the less he becomes. It is inevitable.Now he is more a nuisance a thorn an "alternate route" and not a superhighway or magnificent spectacular essential anything. So he creates every day ... less

But it is what I personally would like to see have happen. What would you like to see happen? Your best-case scenario?

Of course his potential is unlimited but let's not assume the worst. Let's enjoy the best. This IS HIS BEST. Appreciate it while you can. SIGH

What is the underlying drive that forces them to repeatedly do that? Don't they recognize that they are completely in charge of where they go and what they do on their own time? Are they drawn by some mysterious force to be where they are most unhappy? Are some folks so wired they are only ever happy when they are unhappy? Doesn't make sense does it?

Those who are overly emotionally involved always shoot themselves in the feet and then wonder why they are always in pain and bleeding. Of course they always blame the other for the situation they themselves have created. Not very sharp or bright. But you are, right?

I do it all the time and I prefer invisibility. WHY you ask? Because years ago an optometrist told me that my pupils are larger than normal and I should protect my eyes from bright lights including indoors. Which I do. So when you think negatively about someone remember that you don't anything about that person and perhaps you might give "the benefit of the doubt" that maybe there is a logical reason. less
