The stupidity of human 'kind'....

Labour Unions and cancer have a lot in common. They grow and strangle themselves and everything around them to death.

I suppose the complete downfall of British Airways will not come as a surprise then. It is no longer good enough to have a job, there has to be more, more, more - pay, money, free time and less work. And then when it is all gone, people will cry because they do not have a job, income....bread on the table?

If human are supposed to be an intelligent species, how come they have no insight? Even an octopus takes precautions for the future...

From National Geographic

Octopuses have been discovered tip-toeing with coconut-shell halves suctioned to their undersides, then reassembling the halves and disappearing inside for protection or deception, a new study says. You can watch this remarkable video on National Geographic!

1935

This photograph was taken during the Great Depression.
We tend to forget how things can change for the better but also for the worse.

We have so much to be grateful for?

Is this our future?

Nobody talking about  population (out of control) growth?
Every person leaves a carbon footprint!
The Earth can survive, but can humans?

Fame

‘Young’ girls and sometimes the not so young, fall in love with stars, be it sport, entertainment or any kind of position or role with glamour attached. They are attracted to the man in the midst of the glow of popularity and are desperate to become part of the group (of ‘friends’). But then when one of these girls eventually becomes the wife, the same source of attraction now becomes the source of unhappiness and misery, for now she no longer finds the sharing with friends attractive at all. She finds this leaves her out on her own, yearning for some attention.

Being married to a public persona is not a fairy tale – ask Princess Diana, or Mrs. Tiger Woods. Especially if the persona suffers from an ‘imposter syndrome’ – where he can hardly believe that ‘little old me’ should be so famous. And even more so where there is no ounce of an ability to resist temptation, in whichever form it comes.

Being famous and being public property comes hand in hand, you cannot have fame and all the glory without being the property of the public who afforded you that position in the first place.
