Very nice read. A ‘Nice’ read for me is what triggers more than one thought…and thought strong enough to take a shape of their own. This one does. For sure.

And while i in general agree with and feel most of what you’ve written here, there’s one thought that lingered on in my head the longest. It pertains to “c) What looks good in print”. I’m one of those who swear by Darwin. And of late ‘ave been reading a lot of richard dawkins and he takes the explanation of the theory of evolution to a different plane. In that context, the way you described “c)” struck me as a fine example of ‘survival of the fittest’ in today’s world. It brought to face the thought how we still are a dynamically evolving society.

And on a lighter note, if i were to exaggerate a bit and extrapolate “c) What looks good in print” by way of evolution…we’re headed for a beautiful world! Literally!
Keep writing!

And ‘Nice’ for me is something that triggers more than one line of thought; and thoughts strong enough to take a shape of their own. This one did. For sure. And while i in general agree with and feel most of what you said here…there was one particular thought that i couldn’t help get out of my mind.
Pertains to “c) What looks good in print”
I’m one of those who swear by Darwin. And of late ‘ave been reading up a lot of richard dawkins …stuff that takes explaining evolution to a new level. And your thoughts of “c)” made me feel the thought that out society is still…dynamically evolving. Its a befitting example of ‘survival of the fittest’! nature being neautral and letting ‘the best’ take the fast track and evolve even more. And on a lighter note…if i were to exaggerate a bit and extrapolate “c) What looks good in print” as a process in evolution…we’re headed for a ‘beautiful’ world! Literally!
Keep on writing!

In PA, there was what I call a road rage drive by. A woman was shot while driving to work. Can you imagine? Due to anger this person has injured someone all to release alil stress. I wonder if this person feels better knowing what they have done. You can check out the URL and video on my blog. What has this world come to?

I doubt if many people will see it that way, though. By yelling and screaming, they’ll probably release some stress and feel better. I agree with you, that most often it’s unnecessary and also, misdirected. But such is the unfairness of life and the situation.

You have put the ideas simply and lucidly.
