Sentimentality and it's failures..
It has been something I notice more an more that the more sentimental a people are prone to be, the less they tend to their surroundings..
The sad paradox of this is that the nicer the surroundings, often the less sentimental the people, the less they seem to be enjoying it. They are either too busy trying to improve it, or have a hard time feeling that way... Thus the Scottish farmer lives in a virtual paradise of green while the Latin Intellectual usually lives in a cement tomb of imagination... and both come across as discontent..
