If relationships were valued we would have better relationships. I agree. I think another part of the problem is that we confuse the institution of marriage with the relationship. They used to be the same thing but they aren't any more and we haven't figured out how to deal with that. So we try to deal with the relationship problem by addressing the marriage problem, which is close enough to be distracting but too far away to be effective. Karen

Good Morning X, <<Our society talks a good game about education, and relationships, and morality- but these are simply not priorities- if they were, we would live in a different sort of society. >> IMO, when a society becomes too SOFT, it is EASIER to pay lip service to things than do them.. A SOFT Society begets a LAZY MIND, Which I applaud you for not having, btw.. It is easy to live your life by a cook book that probably is wrong most of the time, for the individual reading the recipe, because they are Different than the one that wrote it. So they get screwed up.. Why do people buy trading systems rather than develop them..It is easier... Why do they not work?.. Because they do fit the personality of the buyer.. When they go wrong, the buyer does not know why.. Why does the seller, sell them?.. It is easier to make money from selling them than trading their own system.. And on and on.. Back on track.. the ghetto kids, have a good saying, that our establishment society could well look at,, "if you can't walk the walk. don't talk the talk".. c
