Insecurity

A news item on the early morning news brought this about.
There was a multi level parking garage in some city in a southern state which collapsed yesterday and in the process flattened 45 cars.

Life, it's filled with uncertainty. And yet we manage to get on going back to what we have to do.
We have to.

Anyway, let me segue into the title of this post.
I have some married female friends (don't we all ?).
And I have a female officemate who's been married to her husband for so many years and they're still very much together with no plans of splitting up. Not that there seems to be a reason to. Imagine my surprise when my office friend told me one day that her husband was the jealous kind, after telling me of his infidelity. DUH !
Okay, so it was a one time thing and they have gotten over it. Still., she can't be seen with other men unless they were related. WHAT ? (I thought that just was a custom in a Middle Eastern country.)

What are their husbands scared of ? That they would have an affair, given the chance.
How well do they know their wives ?
How well do they know themselves ?
And there was this moment of insight for me. Some men (I hope just a small number. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part) are really just an insecure bunch of idiots.
But I think, other then GREED, the other underlying reason for most of the troubled times we live in is really just due to a basic "troubled" state of mind men have - INSECURITY !

Enough said for now. Go think and figure it out for yourself. Maybe I'm wrong. Then again, look around you.
