Big F Bomb

I hate profanity because I want to grow and develop as a communicative human being. I want to improve my speaking in every way. When I want to explore a foreign language, I want to learn formal speech just as I want to improve my formal English. 

Nothing is more wonderful than when a person wants to speak with me as a possible friend who wants to know me better. It is a very rare privilege when a person actually wants to find out about me as a person rather than a subject of gossip. When people rush to hear a negative assumption, opinion, judgment, and eventually condemnation, without asking for any facts or information, it is a clear indication that they will not be friends.  

There are a lot of 'F' words that are potentially offensive. The culture today has become so lazy that there is no real effort or work ethic to search for truth or facts. This is so offensive to expect people to run with every doctrine based on a short, second film clip or an implied narrative without background or explanation. 

Any relationship, especially the search for facts, takes hard work and time. To fail to learn and grow invites a very poor and failing society. We may be paid enough compensation for a lifetime of ease for quoting the popular and easy rhetoric, but the price means a total degradation and failure of human life; we stop growing and learning. 

I chose to think for myself and weigh every option possible. I want to work in research and find the best solutions for problems rather than the popular vote or doctrine. Should I agree with every idea expressed at the Oscar Awards? I wish I could earn the amounts of pay that these speakers earn for their speeches. Should I agree, in a fearful state, with every protester on every street yelling at me? I think I would rather grow and develop as a thinking and intelligent human being rather than play dumb and follow the aggressive, abusive four-letter word flatulent.
