Social Science - 24 March 2007

Usually when I have a dream, its not a good one. But lately, I've been having these creeeeepy dreams where I come extremely close to death. For ex...In one of my dreams, a man shot a gun at my head and when the bullet reached my head, I actually felt the pressure of the bullet, but then I woke up. And in another one of my dreams, a man was about to kill me with a knife. When the knife came to my neck, I could, once again, feel the pressure of the knife, but I woke up before I could die.
I have had many others dreams like this.....
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?!?!??

It was 1970, in the waning days of officially sanctioned segregation — of separate and, as Diehl would learn, decidedly unequal schooling.

Diehl, now a professor of English at the University of Iowa, describes her experiences teaching in the rural South in a new book, Dream Not of Other Worlds: Teaching in a Segregated Elementary School, 1970.

It was here, in a school that the county neglected to provide with textbooks, that Diehl learned firsthand the damaging effects that institutional racism and Jim Crow politics would have on her young charges.

She soon discovered that she was learning more from her students than they had the chance to learn from her.

Diehl and Matilda Beauford, one of her former students, speak with Scott Simon about their days in Louisa County, and the legacy of segregation.

So I overthink things waaaaay to much. I sit down and spave out and think about everything. What Ill be doing the next day, what Ill be doing three weeks from now, what Ill watch on tv the next day, who I'm going to talk with tomorrow. I mean I sometimes even go over possible conversations in my head with people I'm going to talk with?! Its never really bothered me all that much actually, but lately it has. See this girl I like I asked out and she kinda shut me down. I was told by everyone who knows me that I just overthink things waaay to much, and I just need to start going with the flow. I just wish I could... I just cant help... thinking lol about everything. Once I thought sooo much I felt my head would explode, so in about 15 minutes I sat down and typed out 2 pages in 12 point font just about me, things going on around me. What I plan on doing everything! I want to stop it. I don't want to be the guy whos 25 and never has had a girlfriend because he overthinks things too much.

Especially family members.
Perhaps in the next life, they would be more affectionate, forgiving, and would be understanding, and not so judgmental.

and hurt or decieve us. We still care about them?? Why do we still think about the good qualities and forget or forgive what they did or the bad qualities about them. I am talking about someone that you cared for and knew...not a stranger, because thats easy to realize. Why is it hard for a person to get over someone who did him/her wrong.?? I am asking from a pschological point of view, why do good people forgive those who abuse or betray them...knowing very well they don't deserve it?

What makes you happy (happiness, not mere pleasure)?
And have you ever been part of a moment of camaraderie, celebration, and joy, when it seems all is good, and you wished that the moment would last forever? Those of you that have should know what I mean.

I am a guy. I rent rooms out in my house, a beautiful house overlooking a lake. Without exception, the women I've rented to have turned out to be the most trouble, whereas only a smattering of men have been this way.

One woman was extremely picky, complaining about every little thing, like who else lived in the house. Another had to have her little doggie and she slept with literally three new guys every week, and she was always late on the rent. Another moved in then tried to weasel out of the deposit by claiming she already paid me two months of rent. Another was a total whack job who was convinced at 33 that she would be a big time singer, even though she was talentless and fat, slept with a guy in the house then cried that he did not love her, tried to stay without paying rent, threatened to falsely accuse me of sexual assault if she did not get her way, stole other people's food, and could not wash her own dishes. Two were filthy annoying slobs.

What the heck is going on?
