It's not the police..

(Preview)
It's not the police who need to be retrained, it's the public. We have grown into a mouthy, mobile phone wielding, vulgar, uncivil society with no personal responsibility and the attitude of 'it's the other person's fault', 'you owe me'. A society where children grow up with no boundaries or knowled...

Why Is It?
(Preview)
Why is it that no one just has everyday experiences in life but has to be on a "journey"? Why can't people enjoy their occupation or at least be satisfied with it without having to be "passionate"? When something good happens why can't we just be happy instead of being "humbled"? Why is everything descr...
