Mrs. Boring

I am not trying to be Mrs. Boring. I figure if I show you my world, you'll show me yours. It's about people , not profit. People are everything and I have been pleased to see the blogs of many who, like me, just live somewhere in the world and share their thoughts and photos. Governments think we elect them to give them power. We elect them to govern! It's something which has gone awry at the moment and I figure if we make the basic contact with each other and make some attempt to relate to each other, we, the people who elected these governments to govern us, might have a better way of understanding each other and the world. I was interested to read in the paper at the weekend that one of the fathers of the school children who were so thoughtlessy and cruelly used as targets in Russia said that he didn't take any notice of what was in the media. He tried to work it out for himself. I was amazed because there is someone in Russia who thinks and feels as I do. It is a cruel world which loads innocents against innocents. I think we will do better if we can see and know each other a bit. I guess I don't know what else to do other than try to influence the things over which I have control and that's a fair bit, but not enough. Besides, blogging is very self indulgent. You can be in your own world, saying your own things and no one can interrupt you or disagree with you or make you feel stupid. It's nice being king of the castle or queen of the may...the head honcho!
