I have people in my life who try to deny aging. Yet they are getting older.
I enjoy friends who have little or no savings for retirement. Yet they persist in spending on transient stuff they don’t need.
I am blest with acquaintances who drink to their detriment but deem it their right.
I have managed employees who came late, ate breakfast after the work day began on “company time” and who wondered that their annual evaluations were never “exceeds expectations”.
I know all the above, and yet I continue to be amazed at human stupidity.
My question is: why? What is there in me that keeps expecting fellow humans to use basic good sense?
Maybe I am starting to face my own stupidity. What do you think?
