I do want to know what love is and I immediately fell in love with this song when I first heard the lyrics that are vulnerable and open. This is a song that I've listened to over decades now and it still makes me want to turn it up when the first chords are struck. Foreigner is a popular British-American rock band that released, "I Want To Know What Love Is" in 1984, two years after I was born.
I was watching an episode of Modern Family and one of the main characters, Phil Dumphy wanted to surprise his wife with a song at the school's fundraiser. However, he begins to have second thoughts after having to follow up a great performance by a member of the "Dadbeats." When Phil was called to the stage, he ended up calling out some random letters and numbers of a nonexistent car as if he was up there to make an announcement. Watching this episode made me go find it on my playlist and I put it on repeat for days.
… I've gotta take a little time A little time to think things over I better read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older
… This mountain, I must climb Feels like a world upon my shoulders Through the clouds, I see love shine Keeps me warm as life grows colder
… In my life, there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life
… I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me (hey)
… Gotta take a little time Little time to look around me I've got nowhere left to hide Looks like love has finally found me
… In my life, there's been heartache and pain I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now, I've traveled so far To change this lonely life
… I wanna know what love is I want you to show me I wanna feel what love is I know you can show me
… I wanna know what love is (I wanna know) I want you to show me (I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is (I know, I know, and I know) I know you can show me Let's talk about love
… I wanna know what love is (Love that you feel inside) I want you to show me (I'm feeling so much love) I wanna feel what love is (And you know, you just can't hide) I know you can show me
… Oh, I wanna know what love is (Let's talk about love) I know you can show me (I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is (And you know you just can't hide) I know you can show me I wanna feel what love is (oh, I wanna know) I want you to show me
Surveillance Pricing: The Hidden Cost of Your Personal Data Have you ever noticed that prices seem to fluctuate depending on how and where you shop? Maybe you’ve used Instacart or another grocery delivery app and found that the price of your favorite milk online is higher than what you’d pay in-store. At first, these small discrepancies might seem like an unavoidable part of online shopping. But what if I told you that businesses might be charging you more based on who you are? Surveillance pricing is a practice where companies use personal data—such as your age, gender, income level, or even your location—to adjust the prices you see. Essentially, what you pay for everyday items could depend on what retailers assume you can afford. A recent Federal Trade Commission (FTC) study revealed how this type of pricing discrimination is becoming more common, with companies using advanced algorithms to analyze consumer behavior and set prices accordingly. For example, someone shopping in a low...
The Ones Closest to You Can Hurt You the Worst. It’s cold down here in sunny Florida so I’m bundled up at the office, but I had to share something that came across my mind. I thought about a conversation I had with a friend years ago. I didn’t quite get to finish my thought, but I said all of this to say, “when someone shows you who they are believe them the first time.” Thank you, Maya Angelou. Sometimes the ones closest to you and know you best are the ones they can hurt you the most because they have the information. They know you. If you’ve been in relationship (friend or family or romantic) for a long time they understand the things that can hurt, you through trial and error. It’s never an accident when they scare you with spiders when you’ve told them you’re afraid of them. They know what to do to move you emotionally and sometimes it’s only for their sick and twisted enjoyment. It’s not friendship and it never was. And when they show you that, even in a “joke” trust and...
