26. I think some people are so involved with their own frustration they can't appreciate anything,...
,...anymore AND they demand so much more from others than themselves without stepping an inch towards walking in other's shoes. It really is pretty pitiful how too many behave precisely as the neocons' characterize: scattered cats (or something like that).

We hold ourselves out to be liberals (i.e. understanding, patient, problem-solving, endeavoring to better quality of life, etc.) while simultaneously allowing our passions to over-RUN the best of our capacity to overcome the problems we face,...we all face, together.

What's most unfortunate is,...the impatience and anger wears out so many people who are willing and able to invest, for the long haul, in a better future. It's too damned intense and negative when the environment is so focused on the negative rather than the step-by-step building blocks to change,...any change.

Clearly, MOST people are ignorant about what it really REALLY takes to overcome injustice. Otherwise, they would rejoice in every small victory in order to inspire and energize themselves toward another.
