Was taking an undergrad psych class. Teacher asked if we had any odd dreams. I mentioned that I had a dream where I was standing in a circle or benevolent strangers with my gf at the time. The song “brown eyed girl” was playing and then suddenly stopped. My gf and I turn to each other in surprise with a general “huh?” and the dream ends. The class has a fun time telling me I have a fear of commitment etc, we have a laugh and move on to the next person’s dream story.
That weekend, I visit my gfs college, we attend a huge bonfire. Ton of people gathered around. There’s a band. They sarcastically start playing brown eyed girl as a joke, as it was way off for their vibe, and then stop the song and make a joke. My gf and I turn to each other as if we were wanting them to play the whole song and we were surprised they stopped.
Then I freaked out! What made it wild was the fact I had shared the story a few days prior to my class.
I went back the next week and had to tell the class about the event. The professor was like “you have a gift”…
Ah, community college…
Is the goal to create places so inhospitable to open minds, that those who possess a shred of empathy flee, creating a conservative gravity well of votes? Is that even sustainable
Face. It speaks before you do, saying the same thing regardless of venue.
The Big Book being discussed in this comment is one of the foundations of the Alcoholics Anonymous program. Hence this warning about alcoholism. AA features a higher power as part of recovery.
Hate states gonna hate. It’s all they have.
