| The grass is always greener....SLOW DOWN
1st, Go here: http://www.grassbgreen.com/, then chuckle and return.
I'll wait....
What exactly does it say about us as humans when this item isn't considered a gag gift, but indeed is considered a worthwhile marketable product?
We are a nation of people who refuse to wait. And I for one won't stand for it. Something must be done about it immediately!
Why do we have such a hard time WAITING? where has the gift of patience gone?
We have data instantly available at our fingertips.
I have a job right now where if you name me the company, and they made charitable donations on their taxes last year. I can get their IRS forms (yes, it's public domain information) in less than 1 minute. Any company, any charitable donation. No kidding. Alls it takes is the right software.
I finish crossword puzzles from the Sunday paper now by going online to get answers to names or geographic places. Is that cheating?
And what has all of our hurry brought us?
Other than high blood pressure. Exorbinant amount of stress, and disconnection with one another, what has all this rushing around gotten us?
We want quick fixes where long term solutions are called for.
We don't want to do the work, we simply want the results:
We would rather paint the grass, then do the work required to have a healthy lawn.
(we just don't care if we're killing our grass in the process, it's the look that counts.)
Why do I have to study for classes. Can't I just pay for the degree?
And we don't want our country to have to do the work either:
Why isn't their democracy in Iraq RIGHT NOW!!!!
Why don't we have green cars on the streets RIGHT NOW!!!
Why can't I have free healthcare RIGHT NOW!!!!
And we yell at others in traffic after we've cut them off. And we get stressed out because the project isn't done. And we get mad at the ones we love because they can't read our minds.
