power games...

today, i realized an important thing.....power, in any form, shrouds and swallows a person...it makes the most decent of them forget who they are and what they stand for!...of course there are the rare exceptions. i'm not talking about politicians alone, but people closer home. even i, for that matter, have realized that, i yell at someone who will take it, and does not have the power to retaliate. its cowardly, but human! thats why the lion chases its prey.. however, what pleasure do i derive from inflicting that pain(or insult) on an individual of lesser standing than me? none!! yet, it seems some do!! and as a student of psychology, i understand the need for power but not its headiness! what makes people throw their power around when they can get away with it?

blocked!

i know what writer's block means...i can't seem to get down to writing!damn!
