Why WHy WHY
That is the question I am forever asking. "WHY?" or when I am really frustrated, "Why Dammit!"
Don't we all ask that? It is the perpetual question that if we had that answer we could solve world hunger---or at least solve what the heck to make for dinner.
I think I ask myself "Why" at least a thousand times a day. Seriously. Why did that person do that? Why can't it be this way because it is just simpler? Why do those kids always leave dirty socks in the hallway? Why does my Mom's scrambled eggs always taste better than mine---it is just eggs anyway--what the heck does she do different?
Then there is a whole bunch of manly whys. Why does our son suddenly NEED to shave when he has no whiskers? Why do men wear rugs when bald is SO sexy? Why will a guy spend $5000 on special tires for his truck that is so high off the ground that his girlfriend can't crawl into it? Why does that man in front of me in line at the grocery store fart and then look at me like I did something? Why do men/boys find that funny?
The dating "Why" haunts us all our lives. Why did that guy never call? Why did he say he would call when he never meant to? Why doesn't his mother think I am the best thing he has ever had in his life? Why does the word shrinkage bother him as much as the word tiny? Why can't he just talk about his feelings? Why does he frown when I ask "WHY?" Why the heck does he feel the need to "name" certain body parts? Why do men always get nervous near valentines day? Why don't they write mushy love letters? Why don't they know that all we want is attention--who cares about flowers?
The shopping "Why's" of course are numerous. Why do they never have my size? Why can't they have this in my favorite color? Why does this have to be made of cotton--because it WILL shrink and then it won't fit--AND I will have to iron it? Why isn't this made out of cotton because it would look better in cotton? Why is there only one checker here at rush hour? What was the manager thinking? ....wait....that was a "what" question...Oh who cares.
Why did all my coupons expire yesterday?
Why can't I eat chocolate and be on a diet? Why does diet food taste like cardboard? Why can't my butt be just a bit more perky? Why aren't all those leg lifts paying off? Why do you get wrinkles when you least expect them? Why doesn't my kids realize that I am the coolest person they ever will meet? Why shouldn't I wear high heels with shorts? Why can't they card me once in a while just to stroke my ego? Why do I have to get old gracefully? Why is graceful a good thing?
Why. YES WHY. Why am I ranting like this? How the hell do I know....I am the one asking WHY.

Post a CommentI guess I am "why-nee"...ewww...that was bad. Sorry.
No - Cheekyredhead you are not: THE WHY question pops out because we - US - are firstly looking into ourselves and have no adequate answer... Then i suggest YOU; to just leave it the way it is and move on. Most of the time - the answer will show - yet: and that is what i have learnt in a "tough" way: I MATTER - I AM KEY - not the others - so it is better when others ask: "WHY ON EARTH did she do that?" - because i am me, myself and i - so it is MY LIFE - and sorry to be so blunt: do they care abt me, anyway? (SOME DO - but then your "why" is surely smaller, right?) So first initial thing to do is KEY i.e. ME - so then i can be there for others - i.e. when am am genuinely myself - then WHY ON EARTH did this not pop earlier into my mind - btw: when i realized that; i was 33 - i know a girl who made the same step with 22!!! so i am DARNED late - WHY WAS I SO LATE???
- you know what / how i mean / it???
nobody gives you anything for asking these questions, Cheekyredhead, SO PLS - just enjoy your life
I can only answer some of your why questions from a psychological point of view, but the others are just a fact of life, which I think is more annoying. Such as why do I have to have big feet and can not find shoes since a lot of shoes come in size 6 or 7. Ugg, LOL. The most important question to me is why am I sick? But then again, if everything worked out the way we wanted it to life can get boring and it can mean having someone else ask why.
WHY...it is THE eternal question. It applies in most every situation. I have spent my life wondering about the "why's" of life. For years I have rationalized and explained away not just my own issues---but other peoples issues too. This article was I suppose my final tossing in the towel and finally deciding that perhaps I don't want to know the big WHY for everything.
Why is it important anyway?
Ha...see...I can't escape the "WHY"
I think people are just curious by nature that is why we ask why. Then again, like you said maybe we would not want to know why.
Cheekyredhead is a metaphor of WHY!
Why does evil triumph so often?
Why don't schemers, those who lie, cut corners, etc seem never to pay a price?
Why if God needs to be worshiped why didn't he make it clearer and world wide?
Grandpa is a wise WHYer!
I think you should be a writer Cheeky!!You are great at it!!
Aww shucks...thanks!
Seriously Cheek you should think about that. What passes for "content" on many of the sites I look at it dull and "witless"
