Will that ever change? Will TRUTH ever mean the same thing to different people or anything else for that matter? We say we "communicate". We fool ourselves. We exchange words but that is not the only thing that defines communication. What do those words MEAN? How are they DEFINED? How do the examples DIFFER and are they ever the same? Hopeless or hopeful that maybe one day we can all learn English so that we CAN communicate when we exchange words. less

The hostess doesn't want 25 salads or vegetable dishes or desserts so order and planning is required in advance to avert chaos. You are asked to be there at a specific time. Are you there on time with the category dish requested or do you show up late with something you wanted to make without notifying the hostess because no one is going to tell you what to do, when to show up, what to wear or how to act. Others are ideal guests and comply with the requests and stay within the lines. I wonder why that is? less

Another one which is a well-known "natural" brand stings a teeny tiny bit so it is far more pleasant to swish around in your mouth. Does the very uncomfortable one do a better jo protecting you than the one that isn't? I'm not mentioning brand names but I'm pretty sure the cognoscenti among you know to which I refer.

Would you permanently give up whom you used to be to become a better truer version of yourself? Or would you be afraid and unwillingly to change a thing and pass on it because what you are and where you are right now suits you in your entire forever?

Well actually there were a few who rang the alarms but for naught. A parody of the worst that could be and here it is in actuality. A reality few ever nightmared about. Amazing ain't it?

We blame them when we don't see eye-to-eye and think there is something wrong with them if we disagree. But is there? How can you help how you are wired or "built" or "made"? You don't blame a cat for being a cat do you? Why do you blame Republicans for being what they or Democrats for being what they are or trumpicans for being what they are? Isn't it silly?

You can get better at it with hard work but you may never be able to excel at it because we all have limitations. You can improve your IQ but only to a certain extent . That extend differs among human beings right?

Baby sitters is what we're paying for. Nannies. Mentors. Tutors. No growth in the subject yet. Too old to learn anything. Day by day it is the same old story. We need new writers or a new subject.
