Slow going

The writing has been a slow process. I found it pleasantly distracting to be involved in an ethics class for a couple of weeks this summer. It really got my mind moving again. Amazing the way that perspective can be distorted.
We were not only reading surveys on cultural norms, but also touched on American specific ethical issues. It's a wonder that if persons are born with an inherent sense of responsibility to society that so many issues arise. I guess that is part of the point. Persons aren't necessarily that way.

At some point I was actually infuriated when I heard some of the narrow-minded points of view of some of my classmates. Nice that it was being presented as a philosophy course (as opposed to a religious course of a specific denomination).

It's been a crazy week around here. Friend in from out of town didn't go as smoothly as I would have liked. I hate it when guys say the wrong things. You almost have to wonder if a person is really so stupid that they don't know how they may be mis-interpretted, or if they actually do it on purpose. I usually find out later that they are just not thinking before the words come out of their mouths. I'm getting to a point in my life where I take people for their word and don't bother with the mind games and figuring them out anymore. Either get it right, or don't mess with me. I don't read minds.

End.
