I thought oldsters were pretty much immune to words ruining their day considering that we have lived through all the challenges and crises in life. What ever happened to "live and let live"? Why can't people disagree and still be friendly? When did forums change from being a place to hear different perspectives on subjects to a venue to reinforce a group think position? Have forums morphed nothing more than a Facebook page where only like minded "friends" are allowed in?  |
Outlaw: My point of view here considers that old saw " it depends on whose ox is being gored". It also depends on the combination/permutation of "sender" "receiver". Personally I'll take communication as it comes to me because understanding is the bigger issue. Agreement might be nice but
as stated in a previous post two people on different philosophical planes can never agree. a spendthrift is never going to agree with a frugal person. (Live today the heck with tomorrow vis a vis save for a rainy day). This leads to accepting such information without judgment but as pure communication ie. someone's thoughts on a matter
