Word for the Day: Thursday, January 30, 2014

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement. I suggest being careful of who, or what you encourage. For example, I see clips on Reality TV shows (i.e. on TruTV, one example being "World's Dumbest Daredevils"), where people are strongly encouraging dangerous behavior (even, in some cases, Daring the person to conduct this behavior). In some cases, this can even bring in our Theme, when the person gets badly injured, and winding up disabled.  (A recently seen example, in the show mentioned earlier, had to do with Motorcycle riders performing "Wheelies" and "Stoppies" [in effect, a "reverse wheelie", done with "careful" use of the brakes].  You can get badly injured this way).
