Wars must be fought out of necessity, not out of choice. There can be no other option when one makes the decision to enter a war. As such, a nation should not be goaded into declaring war. Look at the history of modern warfare, especially in the United States, and you will see the outcomes of wars fought when there is no alternative versus wars fought as a rejection of diplomacy.
I don't ignore people out of some misanthropic defect in my personality. If anything, it's to make life easier for everyone, myself and others. Dealing with people makes life harder, and I make my life harder by bringing people into it. Don't get me wrong. My life is extremely fulfilling with my family and friends in it. It just happens to be more complicated as well.
One of my sons was born on February 12th, the same day as President Abraham Lincoln. Being a Black kid in America, that should probably have some type of symbolic resonance. However, I've never emphasized that connection to my son. Why not? Because I think old Abe is given too much credit as it is.
My daughter is entering her last year of high school next year. Soon, she and a host of her cousins will be college students. This graduation season makes me think back to when I was her age. I was a college freshman and decided to drop out. Best decision I could have made at the time.
Not too long ago, I wrote an article about the grief that Black parents take for giving their kids extraordinary names whereas White parents generally get a pass. This double standard is indicative of the race-based hypocrisy that still pervades America. Maybe Blacks should just leave crazy baby names to White celebrities. However, if you do decide to think outside the box when naming your son or daughter, please keep a few things in mind.
