“What needs to be the focus is giving children or teenagers or whoever is going through that bullying phase confidence. Not confidence that it will get better, but confidence that they will be able to handle themselves or a situation whether it gets better or not.” I love you for your hilarious rant videos, Kingsley, but I absolutely loved your insight on this subject. Thank you for posting! :)
When we got in Marlboro Man’s pickup and continued on our trip to the big city, I looked at Marlboro Man, who had a look on his face that I’ll never be able to describe. It was the look of a husband who is married to a complete klutz who complains about her tight jeans then stops at a convenience store and shatters a doughnut case while trying to retrieve an apple fritter. It was the look of a husband who has seen his wife fall down, run into doors, use the wrong remote control to change channels on the TV, and wear her black leggings inside out for an entire day without knowing. It was the look of a husband who had just filed another incident into his vault of similar moments…and who couldn’t wait to remind me of it the next time we’re driving together and I say I want to pull over and get coffee.
