Cause
I was at a training meeting yesterday. In that meeting the speaker said that the worse person to have on your team is a person with a “cause”. He went onto explain that a person with a cause will think of nothing else except the mission he/she is on. I immediately thought of Beth Holloway. She was on a one way course and that was justice for her daughter. I suppose that wasn’t wrong but it appears to have cost her her family. I also thought of those that their “cause” is to make abortion illegal. They throw love out the window in their pursuit of their cause.Family Feud Question: Name a cause people pursue.
What do you think about a “cause”?

I’m not sure if this really fits, but anorexics/bulimics pursuing skinny/thin figures. They throw their health out the window and rarely care about/listen to what others have to say in regards.
@ArmyWife4Life2007 – it fits. Nothing else matters except narrow goal
I am dealing with this now. My ex has a “cause” to fix us and he is being so aggressive and nasty to me in an attempts to show how much he cares but he is destroying any hope for a future us. His cause is killing us all together and the idea of anything in the future gets dimmer and dimmer.
A cause becomes an obsession and everything is seen through that obsession. In the end they hurt the cause
Abortion is a perfect example does associating abortion with the latest child murder win anyone over?
Getting child molestors registered and identified. There are a lot of us here in the apt complex where I live who make sure the child molestors do not get past management and move in. I think a cause can be a good thing if a person does nto become overly obessed with it.
@Eyesbehindthesoul - Sorry to hear that. Guys love to fix things only relationships can’t always be fixed one sided.
@trunthepaige - agreed – yes it does
Oh I am sure that a cause can become “all important” and screw up someone’s life and the life of those around them.
