Ignorance and Arrogance...a deadly combination

Loh...they do work well...but the gentleman who used one had his house sealed tighter than heck...I guess for a lack of a better way of describing it. I was going to say Sister Ruth...but...well.


Just be careful, I suppose.

Ignorance and Arrogance...a deadly combination

Robert, I am going to develop some arrogance....gotta have that funny cigarette. ...no worse than walnut and acorns.

Ignorance and Arrogance...a deadly combination

Thank you Ash.



Ms. Heart...............

What is your take on this song

Yes Jim, I can agree with that. I would also identify it as an establish path through life that many have followed...sorta a destiny to all that is happiness....if you recall all the people in Oz.

What is your take on this song

Thank you Loh for your interpretation. That sounds like it could be.

Mine is based a lot from the first two lines....


Maybe I have been listening to Sea's video too much...

But, I get the impression it is about a young boy's innocence forcefully being taken by an elite/or elites. ....thus...the innocence the yellow brick road represents has all been removed from his life.


Thank you Jim...yours aligns much with Loh's.

Again, thank you both.

oops....cryptor :)

Sorry, you have changed your name a bit. :)

What is your take on this song

I like it too Orchid. I have not heard it in awhile...other than the other morning before I even woke up, it was playing in my dream as I woke up. I found it very strange.

Good read...thanks for sharing.

RE: Travel With Friends or Solo

I vote travel with somebody....especially more seasoned than myself. Hoping to travel to Scotland next year with seasoned friends.

Merc...

I agree, to some extent...to everything you say.


You mention, you are not into changing how one thinks....and I agree with that.

Maybe where I might disagree with that a bit is...I personally try to enter into situations with as completely an open mind as I can....I try not to incorporate my own personal biases within the moment of the reality that is unfolding in front of me. Therefore, I feel I am open to perceiving and understanding things of life as much as possible....and I believe life is so random and/or complex....that my thinking of any particular thing might be so far off from the reality of that any particular thing....therefore making me possible flawed in my thoughts. And thus, willing to change how I think to some extent.

YSA....beautiful written...

I think in the self-ish...
bitter-struck...
....low-toleration...
....hating..
...narrow-minded..society that is beginning to be born...

That sort of beauty is on the way out of the door.

Hello Ms. Heart...that is just the tip of what I have.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

Ah Merc...I get it. I think that would be heatlhy....I wonder if changing yourself a bit for somebody would be also healthy. Not picking on you Merc, but something I have not genuinely considered to some extent.

Hey Robert....tell your pets all is good so far. We are talking about getting committed in this blog too you know.

Great stuff Ash.

RE: He Called Me a Gold Digger!

Chell,

I have heard men would deliberately do that to women...to challenge them in a way. The would demean them...or something similar...only to challenge to woman to prove them wrong. How could you prove him wrong...perhaps a second date with him.

Anyway... to the burger. lol

Hello Ash,

Thank you for sharing. I am curious, you say the more caring and sharing promoted, the less there will be. How do you think that would play out...for what reason do you suspect.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

However Chelli...I will say...there are little tidbits I see in the news around here that are challenging the negative aspects of the norm as it existed. Perhaps we are in a change phase and what comes out is more beauty than what we once known. I was recently told...we need to keep positive thoughts and energy...and I agree with that sound advice. However, if we can explore...say for example...the current state of relationships, maybe we can discover some hidden darkness and hidden light.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

It seems as time goes by you are right Chelli. Hopefully that is not all we are left with is despair...in many cases, we are the makers of our future. If society continues to be sold on a negative message, I think that is the path we are doomed to take.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

MC....I think it is still out there but it is becoming more rare. I wonder how society moves forward if it were a mentality of me against the world.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

Kinda where I think society is today Merc. The idea of two people sharing their lives unconditionally with each other today is becoming something of old.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

Hello Ash..

I agree with what you say.

I just think we as a society are going down a whole new path, a path does not tolerate much any more...therefore, being with somebody (or belonging to somebody) is going to suffer as a consequence of this "my way or the highway" mentality. I think anyway.

RE: For those of you who are 'into' Astrology...........

Very interesting...thanks for sharing.

CW...

I hear what you are saying. If you feel owned and they are beating you like a dog, that would not be to much of an advantage. Basically...that sound like a one way street where one is taking more than the other. Like MC says...and I agree with her when it comes to relationships, if you get into one...a sense of selflessness would need to become a part of it. However, if you listen to messaging today...I am starting to feel that message of not compromising is the fad of the year. Of course in relationships, compromising is necessary. I would think anyway. ....sorry if I got off subject a bit. :)

Thank you for sharing.

Belonging to somebody...advantages/disadvantages

MC,

What you describe, is the beautiful side to "belonging" to somebody...when both people are in it for selfless ends. However, I wonder if society is as selfless as it once was. Thank you for sharing...in what you describe, it would be an advantage.

Hello Mimi...

Ah-haaaa.....hostage situation.

wondering why

Nuds knows his stuff Robert. He wouldn't exaggerate too much....he is spot on about the indigo deal. I wish he would have ran for President though.

wondering why

Thanks Robert...and thanks to Rusty.

wondering why

Ash...I am guessing that seeing the destruction from the vantage point of the news and the videos you share do no justice to experiencing it in person....please stay safe.

wondering why

Thank you Ken. I always wondered why clothes would seem to shrink...I think I was just getting bigger.
