My Daughters, My Son and the Gender Divide...
While getting a haircut a few weeks ago, I overheard one of the hairdressers tell another, "Men are all the same. They treat you well in front of your face but you never know what they're doing behind your back. That's why I don't care about any man. I put my needs first."
It is a sad commentary on the state of male and female affairs, not only for her apparent tainted perspective, which no doubt involved a gallivanting husband or boyfriend, and the mere fact that I was the only man in the salon at that time made me wonder if she was directing her comments at me, but for inward-turning solution.
She decided to look out for number one, a common theme repeated in hundreds of self-help books. But, is self-centeredness the answer to happiness?
I get it.
