Stupidity

What does one mean by the concept of stupidity? There are many different ways of looking at this concept and does it need approaching for one? When we think of something or someone as "stupid," why do we use an adjective with such a diverse meaning? Stupidity also enrages others who supposedly know better, but is it the behaviour of others that angers them, or the realisation that they too could have made the similar mistakes? When correcting others, how people go about it can reflect upon their own piece-of-mind.

I return to my original question of what stupidity actually is, as this is something I have never mused about before. I am just one of the masses who have called something or someone stupid. I have never taken time to concider what I may mean by this. Some people may think I am very rude (and for the record, I am not saying your wrong,) but isn't the concept of rude a lot similar to the concept of stupid. What one person thinks is stupid may not be an opinion shared by others, or some people may select an "offence" and typify it as stupid, but bje extremely gulity of it themselves.

One thing that I know I do and can't stand to watch/listen to others do is overstate things. Like they think the person they're talking to can't understand them. Where do they get off being so egotistical? Another thing is when people take a specifc stand point, but then go against it. For example, when Mrs Banks in Mary Poppins was campagining for women's right to vote and then she turns round to the maid and tells her to hide her sash because it make her husband mad. God I'm glad the feminists of the 1960's weren't so fickle.

I started blogging again...

Hi I was talking to a new friend of mine the other day and she was telling me how she had set a blog up where she could just come online and talk about random musings. To cut a long story short I deecided to do it too, sorry for pinching your idea hun! Well this is not a completely new idea for me and have started blogs before and never really kept them up because it seemed that no one was reading the - no one was commenting anyway and pretty soon life was getting in the way for me and I just gave up. Not that I'm not interesting!

To start with I will tell you a bit about me, my name is Caroline and I am 22. Right now I have just fallen in love with reading and am finishing books left, right and centre! I also want to be a novelist and am trying to work on a piece right now, if I ever leave the planning stages lol! I have had a poem published by United Press, which I am so proud of, I just wish my family could have felt as proud as me. Still my "I wish" Mama seemed proud of me and she understands my love of writing. I am not going to tell you her name yet, she is just someone who I love as though she is my mother and anyone who's seen us together will probably guess anyway.

I study Creative and Professional Writing and English at University and love it because it allows me to do the two things I love most in the worlds - reading (stuff I want) and writing.

As for the title of this blog, it was named after the song sung by Julie Andrews, before she was really famous, in Cinderella (hence the video) and I often feel like the narrator in that song. Ah well suppose I'd better get some sleep. Be back soon. x
