Playing field/locker room lessons....
Lots of forum/blogging on our interactions with others. It seems to me that, given the many differences between the sexes, experiences in youth can have a marked influence on subsequent development, interpersonal styles, and success/resilience. Duh. Ya think? Contact sports, formerly the place mostly for males, may be a prime example. Lessons of the rough and tumble likely teach some how to fit in with peers so experienced. Life long. And those lacking these may be at a disadvantage in many life endeavors. Could it be that these dynamics explain parts of bullying, female/male banter, success in business/politics, and much more. Now many females are getting their share of such education, although for relatively shorter time periods, and onto quite different constitutions/sentimentalities. I've known a number of men, chronically inadequate, who find competition of any sort quite jarring. Ladies surely can relate. Equal? Perhaps. But surely different. Aa-V.
Super Heroes
Currently, on the boob tube they put on all the superman epics with Christopher Reeves and there are many other comic heroes such as Iron man, Capt America, Incredible hulk Batman etc.
We all know the basic theme of a mysterious mild manner type of person who turns into a super hero to save the day. Of course there is always romance and a damsel in distress.
There is always a bad guy to upset the day with a diabolical plan for his or her own gain.
Yet, looking at all the fantasy of such, it makes one ponder that we are always seeking a Hero or Heroine
to rescue the victim to vanquish the bad guy. Much like our military boys and girls, police force, fire rescue, and medics on the scene and those we deem protectors.
When it comes to all those services we sometimes take for granted and the people we call friends, how we can look upon them as our heroes to come to our aid or rescue.
There also comes a time to see the hero within the reflection pool we often tend to disregard because we sometimes do not see ourselves as heroes.
In the real world that seems to be getting worse by the hour I think at times we put too much dependence upon someone outside of ourselves to bail us out or to play the role of the hero in our lives. A type of role model to pattern by. When looking for a partner here or any social site we all secretly are looking for that hero to feed us something to believe in and give us courage to fight and love another day. When we see those who seemingly have a strong personality and confidence they are sometimes who we wish to become.
It would be such a better world if we all could be heroes to each other instead of seeing the sickness
and the ugliness that so many seem to convey with killing and shooting people down.
Change comes from within each of us and if we don't like what we see around us we must become the hero within that can make a change.
Its a hard task indeed. Nobody is asking to throw on a cape to leap tall buildings or turn big and green and tear up the town though at times in our anger we wish we could.
We often seek truth and justice from everyone but it starts looking within.
When we see our Dr's. or surgeons if they are successful in saving lives they are considered heroes and it takes humility to shine through.
Everyone who blogs or writes a poem here may be considered doing a heroic deed for a message to someone that may read at the right time that could be the one thought that could save a life from suicide.
Or to offer a new idea that could launch someone into a new career or lifestyle. Or to just cheer up someone who may be down on their luck.
In a world gone crazy today, we need many heroes and healers if we want to have a future.
No doubt, there may be a few here we could call a hero and a friend but we won't know that unless we tell them. We need to consider our values and ideals for not all the money in the world or material things is going to matter. We came into this world with nothing we are going to leave it with nothing. The question is how do we want to be remembered a villain or a hero? Like the song, "I need a hero"- Bonnie Tyler

Power cut - where were you when life ended?
Imagine for one moment, there is a power cut and that the electricity doesn’t come back on. Where would we be? Just imagine no TV and no Internet. What would you do? What would everyone do? Go to bed and hope the power would come back on in the morning?
The fact is, as we all probably know, the magic boxes have taken over our lives and in many cases have become substitutes for friends and even family. We talk about the ‘virtual world’ and ‘virtual friends,’ and everyone raves about Internet friends but where would they be in a power cut - which never ended? God forbid! We’d have to learn to play musical instruments to entertain ourselves and we’d have to write letters on paper and then wait a week before we got a reply, and even worse – we’d have to talk to neighbours and relatives.
I’m not writing this to proclaim the evil of television or the Internet but that we substitute them for real people and that without them, so many people would suddenly find themselves very lonely indeed. No more jolly news presenters to talk to them over their cornflakes – a friend in the corner of the room; no more gooey entertainment to absorb and distract them; no more of anything to cover up their loneliness and inability to share their lives with others.
How can we ever really be real people again, if we don’t raise the level at which we communicate with each other? Human intercourse! I could say, we are in danger of becoming an extinct species in our own time; that we metamorphose into some sub species where only electricity keeps us alive. Am I being over dramatic? That’s for you to decide?

. I HATE it
how boring of a person do you have to be that the only thing you have to talk about is someone else? I don't mind if someone wants to come vent to me about something someone else did for a few minutes, but absolutely as soon as it becomes bashing them and talking about all the bad things about them then its not okay. I HATE it
How do you deal with people who simply talk too much?
