http://fillingthepages.com Writings about my travels around the world and on the road Wed, 23 May 2012 21:44:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ http://fillingthepages.com/about/#comment-3990 Wed, 23 May 2012 20:22:39 +0000 #comment-3990 This is one of those things that makes me wneodr whether I’m some sort of freak even though as a kid I thought climbing Ayers Rock one day would be neat, when I learnt as an adult that the tribal owners felt that it was a desecration of Uluru then that was the end of that ambition, totally. As soon as I learnt that a whim of mine would cause emotional/spiritual pain to othes, then that whim evaporated. I simply cannot grok people who dress whims up as dreams and then act like they have a special right to see these dreams come true.Sure, one’s needs may sometimes require over-riding the sensitivities of others. A very strong ambition for a long term goal that will make a big difference to a lot of people could be a want that one might decide is worth pursuing over the opposition of others. But placing the fulfilment of a fucking whim over the deep and abiding objections of other people? It’s just fucking rude.
