Oh my where do I start!<\/p>\n
No just kidding, I’m not really an angry person, probably because I figured out over the years that being angry at stuff slash the world doesn’t make anything better. \u00a0In fact it usually makes the situation worse. So why this topic for my post today then? \u00a0I joined a challenge to start writing a blog and with the challenge came a 7 day course on how to be a better writer. \u00a0Also the course helps you build a good writing habit. \u00a0I need the latter more as building new habits are a bit of a challenge for me. \u00a0Especially good habits. \u00a0Anyway the courses suggested topic for today is what I’m writing about. \u00a0Not one I would have chosen first but none the less a topic that strikes a chord with me, as there is lots in this world that I know is not right and gets me fired up.<\/p>\n
To the topic then. \u00a0After some thought and having to choose between so many things that gets me fired up, here it is. \u00a0Being hoodwinked. \u00a0I don’t mind being tricked as a prank, or even being lied to as a means of pulling off a surprise party. \u00a0But when countries, nations or the like are hoodwinked and it causes pain, destruction and death, that gets me fired up. \u00a0And if I think about it in a negative fashion I guess I would get angry. \u00a0But like I said before that helps no one. \u00a0I prefer to ponder on and strive towards solutions. \u00a0I could talk on this subject for a long while but it is time for me to call it a day.<\/p>\n
I would how ever love to hear what fires you up about the world, or even what makes you angry. \u00a0So make some comments and get it off you chest.<\/p>\n
Stay cool, calm and collected. And Awesome.<\/p>\n
