I AM a misanthrope.

From Wikipedia:

While misanthropes express a general dislike for humanity on the whole, they generally have normal relationships with specific individuals. Misanthropy may be motivated by feelings of isolation or social alienation, or simply contempt for the prevailing characteristics of humanity.

I clearly have contempt for the prevailing characteristics of humanity at this point in time. Can we save ourselves from ourselves? I don’t know. When teenage girls start showing up to church looking like strippers and with mother stripper look-alike bringing her, it’s hard to think that we can. Somehow, over the past 10-15 years, the me-ism and selfishness of the 80s has resurfaced, and I don’t like it one bit. I just hope that we can raise our daughter to be more conscious of her surroundings than most people are today.
