What is wrong with us lately? We have become so obsessed with watching people fail. How many times a day are we on Twitter and see the hashtag #fail. Go to Youtube sometime and look at how often the top videos are of people doing crazy things. Charlie Sheen makes a mistake we get to watch live and in color...somebody slips and falls at an award show, it shows up in our inboxes within moments.
It used to be that we appreciated and rewarded excellence. We proudly talked about our kids accomplishments and we celebrated. But now...well how proud can we be when we simply are trying to fail?
