If you could imagine the best: the best place to work, the best friend to have, the best lover in your bed, the best car in your garage, what would it truly be? Would it include a war? Would it include poverty? How much do we have to give as much as receive?
Do we include others in these thoughts? Or, merely ourselves?
It seems to me as a whole we lack a basic sense of humility. Myself included. How could we possibility think and continue to think we know better? That we know more than anyone else? Confident I understand. The arrogance I don't. Iraqis don't want us there. We want them to want us there. And I can't figure out why we are there and continue to stay. If the shoe was on the other foot, how would we react? Someone invades us because they perceive our government is oppressive. Did we ask the Iraqi people? We've made it worse. Get out. Get out now.
