Kinds of men

There is a famous saying
"If you want to test a man's character, give him power."

True! but often desperate circumstances reveal much more about men than extravagant ones. Trying circumstances show that the Verities people believe in is are just fair-weather belief or they will stick to them even when there is a cost to having them.

At the risk of sounding too simplistic, Here is an example : Most people (except psychos) do not like being pushed or shoving people, basically crowding around when making a queue is possible. Now if say sweets (Or replace it with your favourite dish ;)) are being distributed and you are at the end of line. What would you do? Cut queues and get sweets early because you may or may not get them if you stick to the queue OR Patiently follow the queue respecting other people's time and punctuality.

Therefore I propose an idea:
Men are truly revealed in desperate situations.

- Your's truly

P.S. Great things are simple.

Dreams

Dreams are amazing. They create a outlandish world where reality clashes with the subconscious creating heightened fear and joy. Sometimes You are so struck by fear feeling frozen and numb unable to get away from it while at other times You feel so much joy that You don't want to wake up. Happy dreaming! :)
