Maybe if they are feeling what teens here are feeling, there is a complet hopelessness. They are fed a diet of empty images. a false lifestyle. It is based on images and photos, music and emptyness. they are not incouraged to have substance. To have a talent. Some shine through and grasp on anyways, but the mainstream public schools here do not encourage any kind of independent thinking nor any kind of true grit. I don't know....I just worry that they have truly as you said, "breeding a generation of complete morons."

The older I get the more I have to evaluate myself. I have noted a loyalty to a fault with friends. I truly have thought on that. To a fault. That is not a good thing and just because there is time invested, there is no reason to feel that one must continue friendships. Especially if they are detrimental. I as of late firmly have decided that it is time to do as I have with JW's. time is not always a deciding factor.

In fact, it is quite a stupid reason to hang on. There are things we know of people and let it slide. Till it hits us in the head. Today I think I am starting a new pattern and it will not hold so tightly to things because of time invested.

What do you think? Ever find yourself in a one sided friendship? Or friends with someone you really don't admire. In fact...perhaps despise what they are about? If you met them on the street now, you would not have any desire to know them....You know?

I have lost a few friends as of late...but I think upon concidering again my situation...I never really had them.

i used to help my mom take care of a very old lady right before i moved out of the home.

this lady had been married to a well known artist in the new mexico area.

she had books and books of poems and scraps of papers and things she had written.

Mis~ You must of course! You have a poets writing and style. You would love this one. It is so brown and old. It is cut from a paper (news) perhaps and it came from a black and white marbled notebook she had so full it would not close.

Very neat find to me.

I used to help my mom take care of a very old lady right before I moved out of the home. This lady had been married to a well known artist in the New Mexico Area. She had books and books of poems and scraps of papers and things she had written. She gave some to me. Over the years I have lost some, but tonight I came across one scrap.

I thought I would share. It is off an old Newspaper clipping and I cannot tell who wrote it, but it is not my writing.

Essay on man

Man is what woman marries.

Men have two feet, two hands, and sometimes two wives, but never more than one collar button or one idea at a time.Like Turkish cigarettes, men are all made of the same material, the only difference is that some are better disguised than others. Generally speakin, they may be divided into three classes---husbands, bachelors, and widowers. An eligible bachelor is a man of obstinancy surrounded with suspicion. Husbands are of three varieties--prize, suprise, and consolation prise. Making a husband out of a man is one of the highest plastic arts known to civilization. It requires science, sculpture, and common sense, faith, hope, and charity--mostly charity. It is a psychological marvel that a soft, fluffy, tender, violet-scented, sweet thing like woman should enjoy kissing a big, awkward, stubby-chinned, tobacco- and bay-rum-scented thing like man

If you flatter a man, it frightens him to death, and if you don't, you bore him to death. If you permit him to make love to you, he gets tired of you in the end, and if you don't he gets tired of you in the beginning,

If you wear gay colors, rouge, and startling hats, he hesitates to take you out. If you wear a little brown toque and tailor-made suit, he takes you out and stares all evening at a woman in gay colors, rouge, and a startling hat.

If you are the clinging vine type, he doubts whether you have a brain. If you are the modern type, an advanced and independent woman, he doubts whether you have a heart. If you are silly, he longs for a bright mate, and if you are brilliant, he longs for a playmate. If you are popular with other men, he is jealous, and if you are not, he hesitates to marry a wallflower. If you please him, he seldom mentions it, but if you displease him, he never fails to tell you about it, especially if you are his wife.

That's all. ~Unknown
