In response to ladybird's post: Becoming Monsters

I was reading your post and I began to write a comment but when I see that it was so long I decide to write a post.

The item you chose it is very interesting for me and I totally agree with you.

I'm tired to see this news at the TV and when I am listening to the news I feel very depressed. How coud be people like this?

But I think it isn't only a particular case, I think people is getting crazy.

In everyday situations you can see how people act and I think we are more violent day a day and more unpatient; it's really very sad see how we are everyday less friendly.

Last day I see a young women that was pushing a wheelchair with a man and she hit another man who was walking in front of the wheelchair and he began to shout saying: "Are you blind or what happens?". I think this is a good example about day a day actions as a result of being nervous all the day and we forget words like sorry or it doesn't matter.
I'm really very upset because I think we are losing the kindness.

As in all the situations we can't generalize but I think this is the tendency of the society; maybe because of our stressed lifes we act using violence because we are angry with our boss or with another person and we want to shout to being relaxated but, this is not the correct way.

So people before answer in a bad way inhale and you'll be more relaxed to be a kind person.

LOVING AND BEING LOVED

Do you think it is important in a relationship the physical attraction? Do you think it is more important being crazy about each other or being a good friends?

Firs of all, what is the definition of love? I think there are a lot of differents kinds of love but I would like to talk about the love between two persons; this two persons days before they were strangers and now they would like to pass all their lives together... I think this is very beautiful but amazing at the same time.

I always think about what are the reasons or the things to take into account that make people be in love after being 30 or 40 years together. I suppose talking and listening to each other even when you are tired are important but also the respect, the mutual admiration and have common interests or do things jointly.

What do you thing about it?
What are the secret to keep the love alive?

NAMES

I like my name and I think it is quite popular but sometimes I wonder about if it has helped me in my life.

Some people think have a popular or beautiful name can create a good stereotype, so your name can influence you to get a better job or have better luck than if you have an old-fashioned or a bad name.

The differences begin at the school because having a bad name is a reason to be punish by other children and it might make you more insecure but when you are older it can influence you to get a job o have more friends; having a good name can make you a person more atractive to other people and all in all a happier person.

Nowadays people choose their children's name from series, films or celibrities. I think is very dangerous because names that now are popular could be old fashion or comun names tomorrow.

In conclusion, choosing a name for our children is a serious work and could change their lifes, so parents, you must take it into account.

Good luck.
