Ever Wonder About Certain Things?

And....
I wonder where that pea went that fell off my plate onto the kitchen floor? :unsure:

Seriously though, I, like Lewkat, I find myself looking into mid-air looking for answers and most of the time never finding the answers.

@timoc Patriotism, I know where to go to have that feeling grab your heart and squeeze it so tight you can't breathe. I was visiting my son stationed in Germany and we went to the club on base for karaoke night. When the song came on "I'M Proud to an American" all the soldiers stood up side by side, arms on each others shoulders, swaying in unison to that song singing as loud as they could. I will never forget it or the sound of their voices and still get tingles thinking about it. It's sad to think they are all over this world, maybe doing that very same thing while at home we have what we have. I wish every American could experience that scene as an observer.
 
I wonder why so many people are mean?
I wonder why when people are stopped law enforcement, they don’t comply with the Officer’s request. If they believe they are being mistreated, they can take that up later with the Officer’s supervisor?
I wonder why we have so many haters in life?
And finally———-

“I Wonder Who Wrote The Book Of Love?”

I wonder if I will live to be 100.
I wonder why spiders choose my place as a sanctuary.
I wonder why after people know they have been duped, they still believe what the dupers are touting as fact.
I wonder why I wonder about things that don't matter.
I wonder why I waste time trying to help those that don't want help.
I wonder what makes people want to bungie jump off a bridge.
 
I wonder about some things but not others. I pretty much have figured out the way the world is going and why, I don't concern myself with my kids' reactions to it. Our generation firgured it out. I wonder why people do not understand that underneath it all we are still human with regrets, pain and lonliness...homelessness and needing the normal things in life. Color? Race? Religion? Who knows? Maybe it's a bit of all the negitive together in one pot. One thing I now for sure is that no matter what the situation ego plays a huge part. I know I understand greed and ego more then there needs to be greed and ego.
 
In my case, I realized wondering different things is my way of procrastinating and putting off something i should be doing. Some days I sit and wonder and my Hubby says, what are you thinking about? I say nothing and then start doing what I didn't want to do!

I'm going to say it. *sigh*. As Samuel Johnson (1776) wrote, ""patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel". I see "patriotism" used today, mostly, to justify heinous beliefs and acts.

Morality is also problematic, since it's mostly - apparently - based on a Christian belief system. Christian beliefs in the US have been shrinking for decades.

My hope is that we reach a point where we value life, humanity, friendliness, and helping neighbors at a level above other doctrines.

I wonder why one makes a political post on a thread clearly asking about what you wonder about?

I wonder about most things all the time. Like why people don't even say hello anymore is one thing.

I grew up in an area where you were considered to be weird if you spoke to anyone you didn't know. Then years ago, moved here where people were pretty friendly (which is the only thing I liked about this place because the weather is awful) and now they're not friendly anymore around here. So maybe it's a trend?
