tomorrow's leaders

If you are happy and you do, know it, is it really that appropriate to clap your hands?

And if you are not happy, or indeed, are happy but unaware of your true feelings, will you mindlessly clap your hands along with all the rest of The Happy People and thus increase the number of hand clappers to reflect an untrue result?

And if this is the case, how do we know how many people really are happy and how many are just being swayed by the tide?

And has anyone considered the folks who are not happy, but just enjoy a good hand clap to let off a bit of steam!?!

If hand clapping/happiness indication is what we are teaching the young people today, in a pressured over-hyped atmosphere, what hope do we have of authenticity and even-tempered self awareness in the leaders of tomorrow?
