This is great and very thought-provoking. As Stephen Sondheim once wrote: "There are two kinds of men and only two. There's the one staying put in his proper place. And the one with his foot in the other one's face..." And that pretty much says it all really. He wrote that in the late 70s, but it's probably even more true now... 😎

Haha! So apt. If the foot isn't in our faces, it's up our backsides.

Those that think there are two types of people and accept being one or the other and those who decide the degree of any type to be based upon circumstance.

Very true. Life experiences come at us from all directions. We each can find ourselves in circumstances that others may or may not experience. Hence, my curiosity at the experience and lessons learned by others. Thanks for your "two cents."

I'm curious about people. Perhaps they're curious about me. I'd like to understand them a bit and maybe we can get along. Certain jobs would surely be. . .complicated! I'm gonna have to keep it on the simple. Appreciate you, Carl.

Thanks for reading and appreciating. I try to get around to as many stacks as I can, also, but I have found this to be the biggest library in existence. I had better get back to my own posts! Stay well.

Abraham Lincoln was so right with that quote, I also think it’s so sad that Al was just a boy and got drafted either way.

Momma used to say, "It takes all kinds to make a world." I bet your mother told you the same thing.
