Reality

Well, Fall has slipped back in for the day. I can handle that. One day I mean. Maybe two. But I seriously do not like cold weather. Ask anyone. I pretty much stay cold and can even manage a chill-bump or two all year long. But whatever. My husband tossed chili makings in the crock pot for dinner :)










So life is good ... because I never have, nor ever will be, in charge of the seasons :)

Season 13 (can you believe it??) of Big Brother ended last night. Yeah. I'm one of those fans.

But it's really crazy to watch a house full of strangers try to live together - isolated - for a whole summer. Probably a lot like some 'normal' family dynamics in our real world . . .



But one thing did stand out to me in the finale as we watched the evicted house guests vote to determine the winner. Someone who thought they had the game totally under control in the beginning (well ok, they all did . . .) made the comment to the soon to be crowned winner, that it was a good thing the winner wasn't determined by personality. Really???

Then I thought of how often many of us assume the behavior of others is so much beneath our own. Again I say - really???

Sort of like when you go to any length to pass someone driving too slow for your acceptance - only to end up sitting beside them at a red light . . .

Or behaving in a what you realize in the aftermath was a very unacceptable behavior - only to find out your mom, best friend, boss, small group leader, etc is either related to or works with the very person who witnessed or even worse was the recipient of such behavior. . .









Yep. Unfortunately reality TV is sometimes just a little too real.

Until later ...
