What makes people tick?


I operate on the assumption. That virtually everyone.  Has problems.  Coping with situations. In their lives.  Nobody is trouble-free. Even though some of their troubles. May be more imagined than real. I don’t believe people. Who claim that everything is hunky-dory. That’s impossible. They must be hiding something. Which is their right. My goal. Occasionally. Is to find what’s behind the façade. So that I can better understand. What’s going on. Mostly. I practice on myself. It’s important. That I know the true me. I’ve been trying to figure that out. All my life.  It’s a legitimate endeavor. Of course, I don’t always stop with me. I want very much. To understand my dearest friends. And some relative strangers, too. If for no other reason. Than curiosity.  I’m naturally curious. About what makes people tick. Starting with me. --Jim Broede
