He-Man vs Chuck Norris

Does anyone know, at what point in your life you start to become skeptical? My theory puts that point at about 24 to 36 months (started referencing in terms of months after my trip to baby gap).

When you were two (give or take a few months) and your parents introduced the concept of sharing, I think the majority of us became skeptical. Your mom or dad asked you to share with whomever and at that precise moment your brow crinkled up for the first time. You might not have said "wait a minute" but you were thinking, "wait a second, explain that again, I have to play with the CHUCK NORRIS doll because the kid YOU invited over wants to play with my HE-MAN action figure".

There is nothing profound about pointing out that the basic principles of sharing suggest that you will have less than if you didn't have to share at all. Whether it be less toys to play with, less cookies to eat or less space to live if someone else is around you are not going to get as much. I am speaking of only tangible objects of course.

You might have a little less room on the couch when you share it with your loved one for a Sunday afternoon nap but you can't argue that those thirty minutes would have been better by yourself. Just the same, few things beat the feeling you get when you share a moment or event in your life with the people or person you love.

Altruism is defined as: the unselfish regard or devotion to the welfare of others, or behavior by an animal that is not beneficial to or may be harmful to itself but benefits others of its species. Many disagree with the fundamentals of altruism, they argue the idea is flawed, EVERY action an animal makes, regardless of how selfless it may appear is done for its OWN survival or peace of mind.

Though provoking arguments can be made against altruism, anyone who firmly believes it doesn't exist, really hated Chuck Norris as a child.

Our experience was enhanced sharing the moment we learned whom our new addition was. We look forward to the first time Pierce Zachery Hernandez crinkles his brow and we can't hardly wait to share many more events with all of you who read this blog (I am up to five faithful followers now, yippee!).
