This morning I made my way to Mugs for this Old Town mocha and the blueberry scone, which is now eaten. The sunrise just before I left for the coffee shop was spectacular as the eastern sky was aflame in red and orange. I was too lazy to take a photo but just watched the miracle of it. This is a photo of Megs rosetta she made this morning. I hope you are enjoying your weekend, rain or sunshine.
The only thing more dangerous and more common than narcissism is group narcissism.
Richard Rohr
Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, a need for admiration, a lack of empathy, and a heightened sense of self-importance. Individuals with NPD may present to others as boastful, arrogant, or even unlikeable personality. This personality has no capability to be of service to others because its only goal is to serve the self. And, I would suggest this is also a true definition for group narcissism. We are seeing it running amuck in our politics, churches, corporations, professional sports, celebrities, the wealthy and the ideology of superiority.

Narcissism is one of several psychological disorders that seem to be reaching pandemic levels, especially in the U.S. these days. I think social media and the “influencer craze” help promote this, especially for people who may lean this way naturally.
Meg’s Rosetta is lovely. Bonnie has been baking a variety of scones lately, which we enjoy with our morning coffee. It rained all day yesterday, and a warming trend will have us in the upper 70s by Friday. 🫠

I’ve read that the “influencer craze” has a major impact on young people. So, about what time should I be there for the scones?

Anytime can be scone time, Monte!
