So I have a question for one and all...something that I also ask myself. CS Lewis in 'The Four Loves" talks of the woman (or man) who buys a dog and spoils it so that they might make themselves feel necessary...the need to feel needed. Are we guilty of this? What or who is the spoiled dog in your life? Is it a necessity? Is the human need to feel needed healthy? Post your views - I'll think about mine. There is such beauty in cultivating an opinion that no professor can sleigh. Professor Bigot - we fart in your general direction.
