What, really

What’s something most people don’t understand? – A good question from our Daily Writing Prompt.

I had better start a list because a half dozen things popped into my mind immediately that I believe most people don’t understand.

  • How lucky most of us are. If you want proof go to a children’s cancer ward, war zone, or cemetery. Have some appreciation for life, safety and health.
  • How important it is to use the time we have wisely and the right way. Well, maybe this one is just me.
  • How very interlinked as human beings we are. Separating us by color, ethnicity, or religion is WRONG. We are one. We need to stop the HATE.
  • We are going to destroy the earth if we aren’t careful.
  • That the job is just a job, it doesn’t define you, it provides a living. Yes, you can be proud of your work but don’t live for it, unless it’s your life’s passion.
  • That love takes work and effort. If you put little into it, you will get little in return.
  • That you aren’t connected, with your face in your smartphone all day.
  • People used to understand the word Compromise, but that has been removed from Webster’s.
  • Older ladies don’t understand there is a speed limit on the boardwalk.
Now ladies, no more wheelies on the boardwalk, do you understand me? Photo by Mike Hartley

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
