Motivation is a fire from within. If someone else tries to light that fire under you, chances are it will burn very briefly
I am often amazed at some people's ability to determine what other people really mean.
If you support building a Mosque near Ground Zero you are clearly a Muslim collaborator who supports terrorism and abuse of women. If you oppose the Mosque you must be a redneck racist who hates all foreigners.
There always seems to be somebody who knows what you really mean. I know it is not fashionable, but I've frequently found that the best way to know what somebody means is to ask them.
If I hear one more politician reporting of their opponent "Sure s/he said [insert a position] but it is clear that they mean the opposite" . . .
Well I probably won't scream and yell, as I'd like to, because it will certainly happen tomorrow.
Sigh
