1/ THREAD: I love sports — I always have and I always will. I enjoy participating and I enjoy watching. Sports are part of my identity. In addition to keeping in shape, sport provides a way to gain emotional strength as does no other venue...
2/ However, in the last four years, I've been forced to conclude, whether it's by chance or design, that those in power rely on our love of spectator sports so that we become distracted - our energies divided. And perhaps we largely distract ourselves...
3/ Maybe we are to blame. Our minds (and hearts) become diluted — focused away from their political 'leaders' nefarious behaviors...

#BodyLanguageExpert #Nonverbal #EmotionalIntelligence
1/ Almost three months ago, on 10 August 2019, Jeffrey Epstein, an American financier, and convicted sex offender, was found unresponsive in his cell at Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. He was rushed to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.
2/ Michael M. Baden, a forensic pathologist hired by Epstein's family, said he believes Epstein's autopsy suggests homicide rather than suicide. However, the chief medical examiner of New York City is standing by her initial conclusion that Epstein killed himself by hanging.

LIMITATIONS OF BEING AN EXTERNAL CRITIC

Many do not understand the dynamics of Power and so idealistic they are forever banished to live OUTSIDE the Arena. That is why Activists find it hard to gain Power bcos they are too idealistic and dead to reality adjustment.
People who are Govt critics tend to be accused on being traitors when they go quiet after being given appointment in Government.
Before you join the bandwagon dishing out these abuses, I feel you need to understand Seven key realities of life on the Inside.
1. Everything always look different from the inside than it was from the outside. Outside critics base a lot of their views on assumptions and idealistic factors. But when you become an insider, you suddenly realise new realities and facts that you never knew existed.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;
who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph
of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

T. Roosevelt said "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena..."
As Labor Day nears, and as the current state and national 'moment' of test-based "accountability" rolls on, I want to say that the American schoolteacher is definitely a person in the arena.
Maybe more than any other citizen, the American schoolteacher is in the arena. They live at the intersection of poverty and plenty, teaching both haves and have nots. They live in the heat of friction when the tectonic plates of culture grind as the world heaves painfully forward

"He recognized that his opponents were patriots and human beings" -- President Bush
The man in the arena, which @POTUS44 said was tailored to @SenJohnMcCain "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds"
