Being a naturally curious person, I often have such moments and questions. Usually I keep my questions to myself because to speak them aloud would simply be utterances of rhetorical questions to no one in particular and, if anyone should overhear me, I'd most likely be institutionalized for dementia.
But, wonder, I do. Allow me to share some of my life-questions with you.
- Why is mediocrity rewarded?
- Why do I devalue my mind with television trash?
- Does my trash hauler really sort through all of the co-mingled rubbish? I take the time to carefully prepare my trash for pick-up and then my hauler simply dumps it all into one receptacle and I watch the giant arm move the bucket up over the truck and - voila! - it all goes into the gaping mouth of the garbage truck. This is recycling?
- Why do some individuals relish their role of the shock-and-awe queen or king?
- Why do some individuals know how to push others' buttons better than anyone else?
- Why are so many recreational vehicles painted mostly white?
- Why do SO MANY societal institutions reward mediocrity?
- Has the grading system in our public learning institutions become over-inflated?
- What happened to personal responsibility?
- Why is there so much conflicting information among the medical community?
- What does "a day" really mean in the Bible?
- Do blondes really have more fun?
- Do high standards and expectations have to negate having fun?
- Why am I not in charge of what happens to, within, and without my body?
- Why are some people better at follow-through than others?
- Why are we drawn to people who talk a good line rather than people who walk the straight line?
- What happened to common decency?
- What happened to manners?
Since I started typing, I've been muttering all of these questions and now there are people in white clothing, armed with butterfly nets, at my front door. I think someone made a phone call.
Do you have questions? I'd love to hear yours and I promise not to call anyone!
Ancora imparo
