Pursuit

A part of my book available on amazon

3 or 10 People don’t read or chat to gain information, they are on Facebook to REACT!!! And they show who they are.
Question Marks (?) are a valuable part of the English language. But for some reason on Facebook they are completely neglected.
I got accused of degrading 2 people, but my statement was a question, with question marks (?) that apparently are invisible. People show uneducated, remarks, are their true personality. It is sad that any person would assume any other person as horrible, INSTEAD OF READING TO KNOW… TO UNDERSTAND… and choosing instead to react!!! Inappropriately most often.
I have had to respond a hundred times “THERE IS A QUESTION MARK WAS THAT CONFUSING”?
I tie this phenomenon to “self importance” and “uneducated”. Personal prejudice toward others is a huge problem. Narcissistic personality is a new normal. Big huge sad face with a tear!!!
In a Facebook group (that is political, community issues, and business support) I wanted to prove my theory, so I created 3 community specific flyers of (1 question each) questions that could only be correctly answered in a positive way!!! the results…
75-80% was truly impressive. Completely and only answering the question asked.
10-12% was a random thought having nothing to do with the question.
8-10% was mean, vulgar, rude, and disrespectful!!!
Booyah; it isn’t the question it is the responder. A personal choice of productive or not!!
Dating comes with the late night getting to know each other conversations. Last night was a 2-3 hour chat about politics. I sincerely learned so much. No judgement of right or wrong but, an understanding of priorities, principles, and knowledge. It also reveals prejudices, and history. I certainly learned a lot and “knowing stuff” is always a good thing.
One comment that struck me was (governor) “got drunk on Covid money”. That makes him a great governor. Gathering federal funds to improve the state, boost the economy, and support his constituents, is in fact his job and he excelled. So the federal deficit came up. Yes, I agree it is horrible, filled with fraud, and democrats welfare. Yet, a fact my county’s budget is spending $3 million more than they have!!! It’s not a federal deficit issue, it’s a poor management of government issue. Well only some governments. Florida and Idaho are not running in the negative. So it can be done correctly. It’s in Idaho’s constitution. Because it is balanced, of course I will be voting for the governor that did that. Idaho was closed for 2 weeks… for covid, but not really. Business was allowed to be open, masks were not required in most places, schools were open, and the hospitals were closed by Medicare not Idaho. Washington was closed for over a year. Idaho is a way better government and was led by this governor.
3 or 10 Last night I learned so much and knowledge creates well balanced decisions. I believe in “the pursuit of happiness” and “personal responsibility”. When I’m mad at the government I remind myself I’m not a tree. I’m blessed with roads to other places, but; my pursuit of happiness is in fact Idaho. This county that needs to work on their budget. This town that has no traffic lights. This blue collar community of down to earth neighbors. We have no chain stores or restaurants, but we do have roads to them.
People don’t pursue happiness, looking for positive things, or knowledge, that’s just weird.
